That's another very good point -- you will be hard pressed to find a
travel trailer that doesn't have its own brakes. It's kinda hard to
put brakes on a slide-in that doesn't have any wheels of its own :-)

On that note, has anyone ever tried to convert standard surge brakes
on a trailer to electric brakes? What's involved in that conversion?
