Separate brakes for main gear

What happens if you accidentally apply rudder while depressing one of the toe brakes? How sensitive is this?
I have Saitek pedals, same idea, each rudder pedal has a separate toe brake.
So you are not really changing the way IL-2 works, but making it so that it *seems* that way.

If you have any rudder applied, the toe brake function gets cancelled out. I was having problems with this, because the Saitek brake axis is a tilting axis mounted on top of the rudder pedal. So I had to tighten up my pedals to avoid inadvertent rudder movement, and even set a tiny deadzone to help ensure the rudder did not move when using the brake axis.

In practice, it works like this...you're on the ground taxiing, and want to turn left using differential braking...just actuate the left brake axis, and the program applies brakes, and simultaneously applies left rudder. So, it is not really doing anything differently than Lefty describes, just performing one of those actions for you, the rudder movement.

Maybe not exactly what you are after, but maybe the closest thing at the moment.
