If someone is into writing or working on this sort of stuff, then I'd like
to see a more versatile form of 370 assembler for 370 itself (not a cross
assembler).  One feature I'd like to see is the ability to define structured
data with longer names.  Macros and object definitions could define names
and fields more easily this way.  Limit on symbols should be at least 32
characters.  Also, make sure it can deal with lower case.
