hydraulic handbrake ?

Tell me if this is a dumb/fatal idea:
(esp. rallyguys who have 1st hand experience)
1986 900T16
I'm going to do the 88- brake conversion & it occured to me,
I could bypass the hassle of fitting the rear h-brake cables
& just mount a hydraulic rally-style handbrake(like the ones
they sell at DemonTweeks)--So,if I have no cables at all &
only the hyd. h-brake---will that suffice for mundane things
like holding on a hill?-Is it too risky not to have an "emergency"
brake in case of some fluke complete hyd. brake failure?
What exactly is the deal with hyd. h-brakes?
are they slightly more responsive & easier to control?
I'm not lazy & trying to evade the cable transfer labor hassle,
but I thought this might be a legitimate "upgrade"-
--or I could be dead wrong!!--
Any advice???
THANX!!!
