ZOSMF Verification Pop-up before installing configuration

Our team uses z/OSMF Communication Server Configuration Assistant to implement at-tls, ids, and ipsec policy on z/OS 2.2 Communications Server. We would like a pop-up that kicks off on the "Install File" screen after clicking Go. The pop-up would say something along the lines of "Are you sure you want to install the xxx.conf file on <sysplexname>?"

    Even if a Cancel option was given after clicking "GO" to ftp a file, or after clicking "Save" to save configs would be very helpful.
