Add a table in the documerntation showing relation between the resources protecting the panels (CKR.OPTION.xx.yy) and the resources protecting actions in the panels (CKR.ACTION.xx.yy)

If you want to secure zSecure by panels AND commands, it would be helpful to have a table showing the diffrent relations between panels and actions. Auths are different between RACF admin and auditor and people thet need only to have read access. ...
