CSD import (enhance ADDI to work with CICS definitions from multiple groups)

Our CICS definition file (CSD) uses different groups for different CICS resource types. We have one for Transactions in Program Control Table (PCT) and a separate group for defining Programs (PPT).
If Transaction and Programs are in different Groups then ADDI does not recognize these and an error message is displayed in the AD Build. The outcome is that Transactions are not built in ADDI and therfore can be seen in the AD client.

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. Your request is currently in line with our product strategy and we have planned it for a future release of the product. Thank you for your suggestion and continued support.

    A preliminary evaluation of this request indicates that it is consistent with our business strategy. Further evaluation of this RFE is underway.

    Is there any feedback from the IBM Dev team on this?
    I ask as ADDI says it works with CICS but for our site it does not (our definition approach is acceptable under CICS rules), just that ADDI does not work. The functionality is useless.
