Re: How bad would it be to use a dog gear as a brake?
Assuming you're using this for a hanger, I don't forsee you shearing teeth of a dog gear. That being said, since you're transferring all the force to your gearbox plate, ensure that neither the gearbox plate or the mounting interface between your gearbox and frame will break.
EDIT: The screw/pin holding the dog gear to the inner shifting shaft would also be of concern.
