Default Convertible top safety bypass

I was reading about bypassing the safety features on the navigation unit so you can add a destination while driving and watch DVDs. You do this by grounding the parking break and interrupting the speed signal to the unit.

That got me thinking could you do the same for the power soft top? Interrupt the break and reverse signals so you can drop the top while backing out of the driveway and maybe bypass the speed sensor so you can open or close it while moving. The Porsche Boxter can operate its top up to about 30mph without damage so I am pretty sure our Zs would be safe to maybe 20mph.

Anybody with more electronics experience than me have any thoughts?
