Subject: Size of a PDSE member?

(Motivated by a thread on TSO-REXX)

Surely PDSE keeps metadata on the storage, whether records or pages, used by
each member.  It needs the information to reclaim space when a member is
deleted.  Is there a way to extract the size of a member from this metadata
without reading the entire member?
