Me, I don't like the system() API. If the command fails, it removes the message from the joblog, and then you can only get the message ID, from a field defined with import('_EXCP_MSGID'). The message ID isn't as useful as the real message with its replacement values, especially if it was an unexpected error.

With your wrapper, you could call QCMDEXC or QCAPCMD instead.
