zUnit Feature in IDz should be able to "expand and read" the Catalogued Procedure ("PROC") during "Record Data"

Currently, the Recording JCL in zUnit Feature (in IDz v15) requires that the application/program being tested is in a step in the JCL. Where the application/program is executed/invoked via a catalogued procedure ("PROC"), zUnit should be able to "expand and read" the Catalogued Procedure ("PROC") so that the developer does not have to [manually] pull that steps out of the PROC and add to the recording JCL. Ability to use any existing JCL, without need to modify it, to invoke the application/program will make zUnit easier to use and enable developer to adopt it.

Note: Roger Newton has some background on this request.
