Prevent RESUBMIT job stream plug-in job type to submit same stream multiple times within same minute

We have recently experienced some mailbox.msg corruption issues which are documented under case #TS014467118.
It was identified by HCL that the corruption is caused by the resubmit plug-in job type and occurs in memory.
We really identified many RESUBMIT plug-in job type running at very same second. Sometimes submitting the same job stream 3x within same minute. Which may be a contributing factor for the mailbox.msg corruption since the same submit command can still be under in memory processing causing TWS to do not manage the messages accordingly.
Even with the "Start after" option set to 00h01 within the job definition to prevent this scenario, would be a good idea to prevent the users define something that can crash the system.
