Ability to run REXX data set members from the Data Sets view

[Joe-Winchester]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
PDS members (as well as sequential data sets) can contain REXX scripts.
These can be run using a Zowe TSO command, e.g. exec 'PDS.PATH{MEMBER}' which then echos this to the terminal

Describe the solution you'd like
The ability to do a Run EXEC directly against the PDS member.
This is similar in concept to Submit JCL but a little different as the TSO profile needs to be known (which crosses to the other issue of how to associated a TSO profile with a base profile).

Additional context

To avoid cluttering of the Run EXEC against every PDS menu, maybe there should be a way to limit this to data sets that have just REXX in their path, however the same argument goes for submitting JCL that it on every pop-up including COBOL or HLASM (or REXX) or other files that have no valid JCL in them. Maybe there needs to be a way to associate file paths with file types in the settings.json that would allow users to specify which PDS naming rules contain JCL or REXX.

By comparison, in ISPF 3.4 a user can type EX against a member that runs the TSO exec (and likewise SUB that does a JCL submit).

Hello @Joe-Winchester
Great to have open this request .
I have asked the same this today via the Broadcom case because I did a demo this morning with different system engineer and when I launched the command to run a Rexx program via Zowe CLI they were not really happy with all this commands.
But in your proposition could you tell me what we can do when we wan to inter-act with the Rexx.
Imagine I want to launch a script where I must guess a number.
To introduce the number in input with you request we can,t do this because we didn't open an address space.
Does it mean that each time an open address space will be execute previously ?
Best Regards
