DSNTIAUL should support input LRECL size of > 80 bytes and not ignore input beyond the first 72 bytes

It is sometimes easy to put SQL all on one record as long as the LRECL of that record is very large.  It becomes difficult to parse that SQL so it is divided into 72 byte records.  Currently, the IBM utilities have input files that can have a LRECL > 80 bytes and those utilities honor the larger length LRECL.  I would like DSNTIAUL to also work like the other IBM utilities.  Once we started using long names for tables and columns, we had a need for something like this.

    Thank you for submitting this enhancement request. We have reviewed it and determined it is not in our strategic, 24-month forecast, therefore we will not be implementing this idea.
