As far as I know, RPG has always done it that way. I see that CL uses the variable name.

Object . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : &PGMNAME
Library . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : *LIBL
Object type . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : *PGM

Decades indeed. As far as I can tell, RPG added DSPPGMREF support in V2R1, around 1990.
