But I plan on swapping pads/discs/lines in the near future, and was wondering - would a power brake bleeder eliminate the troubles I would have with trying to bleed the system?  How, and more importantly, how good do these work?  Worth it ($44)?  Thx!

You can build one for about $15.  They work great, very convenient, but
you still need to open the bleeder valves, so I'm afraid they won't help
you with your broken valve.
