Be able to configure SCRNAME for common panels instead of using internal names such as ISFPCU4

I can use SWAPBAR to display the sessions I have, but it displays names like ISFPCU4. I can set the screen name using SCRNAME eg SCRNAME SDSF, but I do not want to do this for every session I start. It would be good to be able to get the names set up for me. For example in my logon script have SCREENALIAS ISFPCU4 SDSF SCREENALIAS ISR@PRI MAIN or have this as an ISPF configuration option. If this was an ISPF configuration option, provide aliases for the common panels. Some panels have good names, such as "z/OS System Programmer Primary Option Menu " is called OS390S; "z/OS V2.4 HCD" is called HCD

    We can not control applications such as SDSF as we do not own the startup exec/panel. A customer can provide the screen name in modified copies of the non ISPF dialog startup method via scrnanme parm on select service. For ISPF they can modify ISR@PRIM or provide their own startup selection menu with appropriate SCRNAME values.
