I'd classify it as much more benign.  As a system administrator you can
control who you deploy the QEZSNDMSG program to.  This DSPLIB quirk can be
accessed any number of ways on a default system configuration - including
(and especially) by remote customers, vendors, etc. who I might provide a
profile and password to.  Those people would normally have a different risk
profile than my employees.
