You might be able to have a logon UDC check for HPJOBTYPE = "J" and 
HPINPRI = 15.  Then you can do some other logic to see if it is a 
legitimate use of HIPRI and if not do an EOJ or ABORTJOB.  (Or open the 
company's accounting database and perform a suitable transfer of 
funds... "Starting next week all HIPRI jobs will be charged $X per CPU 
minute." :)

The logon UDC should even be able to catch users with the OP capability, 
though I suspect there are ways around it if they're willing to try hard 
enough.
