You shoulda put "other" dummy! Though in actuality I do the same as you. I perform heavy front braking with engine braking. At some point (when the front brake is on hard enough) I whip-in the clutch lever to take away the engine braking. This is partly so I don't stall when I come to a complete stop and partly so in the off-chance I nearly do a stoppie, the engine braking isn't enough to cause the rear to slide out. Mainly for the former point though, as I'm not actually sure if the latter scenario would happen.
