Automatic linking of a breakview with different drawing views

Hello everyone,
I´ve got a very long part which has to fit on an A3-sheet format (Scale 1:2). I used the "Break view" tool to reduce the irrelevant length between both pins. Now I want to create a new drawing view out of my first view.
Is it possible to automatically reproduce this feature on the new view? Or do I really have to recreate this feature and hope that the final length fit to my first view lenght.

This is the work around I would take.
Use the line tool and draw 2 lines where you want the break:
Then make your breaks at the lines
Then delete the lines and the 2 view should be close to matching
Like I said its a work around.3

I would like to ask that this become a native capability. Honestly, I feel that this should be the default behavior, with views not maintaining the breakview being the exceptional behavior.
