Gerry,
IBM has reviewed proposal 12-402r0.  While the goal of being able to 
report other errors seems good, we believe that it would better be 
accomplished by using a different page for non-background errors (e.g., 
SCSI Foreground Media Errors log page) and leave the existing background 
error page alone.  We believe it is important to be able to distinguish an 
error between background and foreground operations.
Thanks,
