My winch has two ropes, one for the clutch the other for the brake.
If needed, I can hold/pull them both with one hand, or use them one at a time. Seems like a great system to me.

Ummm, I not seeing your vision, why does one need a rope brake when it self locks? One winch, One rope, One brake, Seems like a great system to me........ Only a remote would be better.
