How do you "Break Link" of Layout Drawing?

I sometimes Break the Link between a progress layout drawing to keep a close record of changes (I use PDF copies too).

The only way I know to Break the Link is to open Drawing Manager> select the drawing in the list> Click the "Break Link" icon.

Is there another way?

I can't find "Break Link" in the list of commands to add to a custom toolbar.

Be really nice to have it appear with a right click (drawing selected), right below "Link Drawing to...."

I could not find this command in the list of available commands in the Work Environment Dialog.
Seems like this is a command that works exclusively in the Drawing Manager Dialog.

Thanks for the confirmation Laszlo.
I guess there aren't a lot of people using this function.
