To me, that seems broken. The whole point behind bidi break on <br> was to make
pages that would not consider BiDi "do the right thing". If you have a
non-default option, then the pages that would not consider BiDi still wouldn't,
and the pages that do can use <p>. The only real use I see for <br> as an
optional BiDi break is for applications such as greasemonkey, where the user
add our hypothetical CSS (or whatever) to the <br> in order to fix a broken
page.
