Yes, signing off and on is the ultimate cleanup (excluding IMPL), but it's a
major drain on productivity when you have a series of overrides, test files
in QTEMP, and command history available in the current job with F9.  Yes, I
can add the overrides to a script and put my test files in a persistent
program, but many times I end up in a unique (and non-scriptable) situation
based on the direction the testing is going.  

A DSPACCGRP-like tool would be extremely useful in tracking down open files,
rogue access groups, etc.
