I'd imagine that would drive the tool vendors nuts. If you think they went bonkers when IBM allowed you to use more than 25 libraries in a library list, just think how ballistic they'll go on that change.

Only if it breaks existing code.

If instead of changing the QSYS.LIB file system, IBM were to add a new file system that aliased long names to the short ones, it should remain compatible. If you recall, Windows 95 had both short and long names.
