Yeah I can see using power in those clear situations, but I'm thinking more like, you go into a turn you know you can handle, and there's a Buick in the way all of a sudden... Brakes are about all ya got then, right?
If you must break like that while in a turn, I believe the proper technique is to counter steer in the opposite direction of the turn. This will bring the bike straight up, and then you can safely brake. Otherwise brake prior to the turn or after the turn only. Typically you can power through a turn by increasing your counter steering and rolling on the throttle for more speed. More counter steer = tighter turn, more speed = increased stability. Let the flaming begin!
