READ DESCENDING BY ISN

Background:
Occasionally, we want to access the LAST record in a file, but there is no simple way to do this.
For Adabas files with the option ISN-Reusage=No,a feature such as READ (1) DESCENDING BY ISN would achieve this requirement simply & efficiently. It would be very useful.

Enhancement Request:
In Natural, please provide a READ DESCENDING BY ISN statement option.
