The problem I have with using the BREAK is the number
of terminals/computers that cannot send BREAKs.  
For example, the Osborne I computer. It cannot send 
a BREAK through the normal RS-232 port.  I like the
Sytek's ability to select your option as compared
to systems, such as Dialog, that mandate one only.
(For Dialog, the last I checked, the only way to
interrupt was the BREAK, which my Osborne couldn't
send).
