My rebreather lets me switch to OC without taking the mask off either. 
The problem comes when your OC bailout reg fails, or you run out of OC 
supply on your own pack and need to access your buddy's gas supply.  
Basically any situation that requires you to stuff something else in your 
mouth.

Aloha,
Rich

P.S. Where did you disappear to on Saturday? You still owe me dinner, dude!
