But in my app I extended this feature. When my loco has been commanded down to idle a further press of the down button applies the brake. In fact it applies 20% more brake with each press. If the brake has been applied then pushing the up button releases the brake.
As far as I am aware, the brake function is implemented differently by different decoder manufactures, and not at all by many.

I have about two dozen locos, none of which have decoders with a brake function.? As such, I have little interest in developing a feature that a) will only work on some decoders, and b) I can't test.
To be honest, I don't completely understand what you are asking for anyway.? Probably because I have never used a decoder with a brake function.
As and aside...
I added the 'semi-realistic' throttle screen layout (in the current beta release) as a way to have a brake on any decoder, even if it doesn't have a built in brake function.? I know it is a fudge but I put it out there in the hope of getting feedback so I could improve it, but I have not received any so may remove it in subsequent releases.
