We have been aware of this requirement for a long time, and it is certainly a good idea, but it's quite tricky to implement internally for historical reasons, because SuperC currently sets up the entries in the SELECT list before it opens the data set (except if there is no SELECT, in which case it builds a list in an alternative format from the directories). It is also necessary to process SELECT in a different way when there are wild card characters, as a member name could be matched by more than one selection expression, but should only be processed once.
Since the ISPF front-end has already provided a solution (but with limitations), SuperC has not considered this a high priority. However, it would certainly be useful, especially for batch jobs, so we are currently considering this as a possible future candidate item.
