If this is true then one man's trash is another man's treasure.
Let's assume that the application code doesn't qualify it. So it calls the exit point. The exit point would qualify it with QSYS. Therefore it would not call itself recursively. No need to dup the command.

In this case the command is easy. You aren't really changing what the command does. If you qualify it, the QIBM_CA_CHG_COMMAND exit point doesn't fire. This ugly. I copied from a couple other programs and stripped it down, but it does work. You would obviously want to test well, and do some more scanning to make sure you only run it when needed. And fix up my crappy command definition.

No you will not need to modify the application code.
CRTDUPOBJ CLRPFM to modlib
Use a command exit point program against QSYS.CLRPFM Have the command exit point analyze that command, stripping off all the parameters to pass to modlib.clrpfm. But before running modlib.clrpfm it reads QSYS2.SYSTRIGGERS for a list of triggers associated with that table, disables them, runs modlib.clrpfm, and enables them again. QED

I have a command exit point program which analyzes SNDDST, strips off the parameters and passes them on to SNDEMAIL instead.
Nice way to phase in replacement utilities.
