z/OS SDSF CONFIRM(ALWAYS) with ABORT choice by default

Hello,

To prevent some misuse in SDSF about JOB purge with the action character "P" in front of a job, we try to customize the confirmation popup to avoid a too quick purge.

To do that, in ISFPRM00, we added the CONFIRM(ALWAYS) parameter which is a good start.

But even with this parameter, we notice that the confirmation popup for the users always prepares the answer "1" (=OK purge). This default choice "1" is dangerous for us. We would like to change this to set by default for all users the choice "2" (=ABORT) ?

It is dangerous for us because if you type 2 times on the enter key, it is like no real confirmation and the dangerous action is processed without real confirmation guard.

I saw an advance PROPLIST parameter (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/2.4.0?topic=proplist-syntax) in the documentation, but nothing about the configuration I am looking for.

Is it possible to implement this default configuration possibility in the SDSF product for all users ?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
Stéphane BRUN.
