I have a friend with one usable hand, and he had a custom setup made to work just like that, but it required vigilant adjustments to prevent endos.

I honestly couldn't tell you which brake was which when I'm riding. Mind you, I suck so I'm never going fast. But especially not in an emergency situation where all my thoughts are just on pressing the brakes. I have, however, been told to readjust your weight when braking so your butt is very far back and that will help prevent flipping over.
