As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each RFE. The offering team has carefully reviewed this RFE and has decided that it does not fit into our current plans within the next 1-2 years, so the RFE will be closed. The request will be kept in RFE system and might be reassessed or reopened for additional feedback or voting in the future. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us the privilege of partnering with you in developing our products.
Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
Brand - Servers and Systems Software
Product family - Programming Languages
Product - Developer for System z
For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:

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 inline with our product strategy and we have planned it for a future release of the product. Thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
The IBM approach is acceptable. Thanks!
If we were to accept this RFE the implementation would likely alert the user that the data set they have requested an action (ie - CTRL+F) upon is migrated and prompt the user whether to recall the data set. If the user chooses to go ahead an recall the data set then once the recall action completes the user would need to resubmit the initially requested action (ie - CTRL+F). We do not want to block the UI waiting for a recall to complete since recalling a dataset may take a significant amount of time. Is this approach acceptable?
This RFE is consistent with our strategy and product roadmap and IBM is continuing to evaluate.
