Excellent point, Albert.

I suggest this for all manner of system-level things:

1. Printer file changes
2. Command default changes
3. Data areas
4. Data queues
5. Message files
6. Reply list entries
7. System values
8. Subsystem definitions
9. Output queues

There are many more.  The fact that we can compile any command into a CL
program means that it is really, really easy to create a CL member that can,
in effect, restore all your customizations to the operating system.  Keeping
this CL up to date will save you a ton of headaches down the road.

And if you want to go completely overboard, you can add your own versions of
various system modification commands and make sure they add to this CL.
