You are correct about cutting the rubbers out of the master. It's pretty common on older masters as they get the piston travel area polished over and over. So when you go outside the normal travel you can either cut or even roll the rubbers and turn them inside out. Also that's why it's important that the person helping you bleed the system only pushes the pedal half way down.
Yep. It's called "bypassing" the M/C. It's the exact reason the combo valve has the safety built in. I'm remembering more and more as I think about it.
