Or wire in a relay to the brake light switch.

Do NOT do this. I have personally seen someone zing reverse while downshifting from 6th.
If you feel the need to use the power from the brake light, put a momentary switch in series so you have to push the switch and the pedal to get into reverse, but if you do any kind of driving in parking lots, races, etc that would get old.

If I was putting a T56 into an older vehicle without using the LT/LS PCM, I would go with the reverse lock out module, it's cheap enough and easy to install.
