One thing to be aware of--if you revoke authority to CHGJOB your users 
will not be able to run programs that do things like:
CHGJOB SWS(10000000)
CHGJOB OUTQ(xxxxx)
CHGJOB PRTTXT('xxxxx')
CHGJOB DDMCNV(*DROP)
CHGJOB JOBMSGQFL(*WRAP)

If you have legacy apps that use switches this will kill you.  One shop I 
knew about instituted an automatic process whereby they used API's to do a 
WRKACTJOB and scan for jobs with changed priorities.  This process then 
sent a message to the MIS manager and held the offending job.  Jobs that 
MIS changed were put in a DB file; the program checked this file for 
"valid" priority changes...
