They all are *MENU objects (INLMNU)

To my understanding the INLPGM/INLMNU is only secured as long a you protect
those fields on the signon screen -. Otherwise a clever user may use QCMD as
a Program/Procedure on the signon screen and bypass the intended
restriction. In general I use signon screens with protected fields for that
reason.
