Enhance the IPSEC command to delete a shadow tunnel

We hit an issue where the main SWSA tunnel came down but one of the shadow tunnels remained active and thus caused our server on that host to become unresponsive. We had no way of removing the shadow tunnel to resume our workload on that LPAR and had to wait for the refresh interval to trigger. I am proposing IBM add the ability to delete the shadow tunnel with the –y command.
For example if I had a stalled shadow tunnel Y100 I want to be able to remove the bad shadow tunnel with the following command
IPSEC –y deactivate-s -a Y100

    The conditions that created the need for this enhancement have been eliminated by other IPsec fixes/enhancements, so this is no longer needed.
