victor brake/coast setting

According to the manual, the jumper to set brake/coast on the Victor can be replaced with a limit switch - not particularly useful. According to the custom ciruits rules, we can't make something to replace the jumper. I'm also assuming that a relay or transistor would fall under the category of custom circuit. I just wanted to make sure that I'm interpreting the rules correctly. It just doesn't seem like that great of an idea to actuate a limit switch with a servo or soleniod or something to dynamically change the setting.
