That would be ideal.  But, if the receiver is in the power head,
then you'd not be able to purchase such a switch as an aftermarket
item to achieve the desired functionality -- you'd need another
control lead or other means of encoding the switch's position
onto the signal pair that normally actuates the opener.

As the Rx antenna is typically just a short length of wire protruding
from a hole in the case, its hard with JUST access to it to ensure NO
RF makes it into the receiver (e.g., if the user stood directly below
the opener and activated his remote).
