z/OS Connect API Requester should provide configurable return codes to reflect HTTP response codes Merged

Using z/OS Connect EE V3.0 on z/OS as an API Requester, I observed when calling on the BAQCSTUB routine, I have four possible return codes, reflecting a few errors that would prevent requesting the API on the one hand, and all HTTP responses from the API on the other hand.
On the other hand, I have no way of knowing or influencing which HTTP response is translated to which return code.
Example 1: I call on a service with a given input and it returns HTTP 203... I have no way of knowing whether I will get a BAQ-SUCCESS or a BAQ-ERROR-IN-API.
Example 2: I call on a service to delete a resource. If the resource does not exist, I would get HTTP 404, but I'm okay with that. I need to be able to tell z/OS Connect to give me a BAQ-SUCCESS in this case.
