The CLIST stack integration is not something that you can simulate in REXX.

Use case?

Ah!  You brought it upon yourself.  "One can write FORTRAN in any language,"
and apparently one can write CLIST in Rexx.

In many cases I'd use Rexx compound symbols.  It's a pity that ISPF doesn't
support Rexx compound symbols.  RFE needed.
