CICS SM in rdz to be extended

In Rational Developer for system z switch to CICS SM perspective.
When comparing to the standalone version (CICS explorer) we find a lot of functionality missing.
We would like CICS SM to cover the functions mostly used.
We realize this is individual, so the best case would be to include all functionality from CICS Explorer into CICS SM perspective. To avoid cluttering the menus, we prefer that you can disable/enable each function using preferences.


If not possible to include functions , these are the most used CEMT functions in our shop that i would like to see included :
CEMT INQ TRAN

CEMT INQ TASK - To see if a task is running and potentialy to purge

CEMT INQ DB2E - to see plan/program relation

CEMT INQ TS - To see if LOCAL TS queue is defined

CEMT INQ PROGRAM

Also browsing local ts queues is somewhat used (CEBR)
