Topic subscriptions to collect application activity trace on z/OS

For auditing purposes and for technical analyses of application activity we collect application activity tracing information in MQ on Multiplatforms.
One can create subscriptions to specific topics to collect application activity trace data from IBM MQ v.9.0 on Multiplatforms:

https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/ibm-mq/9.2?topic=trace-subscribing-application-activity-information

Specific topics are relevant in order to limit data collection. In that case only specific trace data, like activity via important SVRCONN channels, will be collected.

We would also like to collect the same information on MQ on z/OS in the same manner. We would like to be able to create subscriptions to specific topics to collect application activity trace data from MQ on z/OS.
Pros are uniformity and transparancy.

    This is a duplicate of the requirement raised on the previous RFE system at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewChangeRequest&CR_ID=56321 which was closed as declined. Unfortunately, the situation hasn't changed since that time.

    We recognise that this is a valid requirement. However it doesn't fit with our delivery plans for the next couple of years. As a result we are declining this Idea.
