I prefer the Vender specific profile myself...If the purchaser says to use
QSECOFR because they do not want to create the prerequisite profiles, then
the LODRUN should create the profiles using the QSECOFR profile then switch
to the prerequisite profile to install the rest of the software.

I wholeheartedly agree.  One of the problems we have run into with our
clients that have multiple software vendors, is the limit of how many
objects one single user profile can own.  Think about how big that number
is now, but a large system with several software products all trying to use
QPGMR or QSECOFR for ownership, and then add in temporary object that get
created and you have a recipe for trouble.  IBM profiles owning user (read
non-IBM) objects is a bad thing for many reasons, not just security.
