Allow to keep preferred Formatted View in user's profile.

Currently, ISPF interface always show the default Unformatted View when viewing an archive leading to ASA code in col 1 being shown to users. 
Users can select NoCC formatted view from the Options menu "3. Change Formatted View" but this applies only to the current windows. When exiting and browsing again the archive it reverts to the default unformatted view. Therefore they do have to select NoCC each time they browsing an archive, which is not very convenient. 

It would be great if this setting could be stored in the user profile, by adding it into "User Preferences" or "Viewer Preferences" options.
