That's as elegant a solution as any, but for the O.P., why not wire the 
handbrake switch to a really big red light on the dash?  An LED would be 
unobtrusive when off, but you can get some that are incredibly bright 
when illuminated, so you wouldn't miss it.

Far easier than a series of relays and interlocks...
