HSBC UK - VTP Recording and/or Replay Filter Enhancement

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

VTP RFE:

Can VTP limit the recording to only the application-owned modules necessary for the test scope using either include or exclude filter? Then at REPLAY, VTP only executes the selected application-ownedprograms that have been recorded and its in/output. VTP should then stub out the calls to and from those application programs from the programs that are out of the test scope. The VTP recording filter capability should not be limited to including the entry programs and program to program calls via LINK or CALL, which may consist of or include POINTERs + LENGTHs.

OR

VTP records everything in the transaction journey in the test scope, but an include or exclude filter must be configurable at the VTP REPLAY job to exclude programs, but not their interfaces with programs which ARE in scope to be tested from the VTP REPLAY. The VTP REPLAY filter capability should not be limited to including the entry programs and program to program calls via LINK or CALL, which may consist of or include POINTERs + LENGTHs.
