You're sort of correct there QSK but the reason for the "Cloudbreak" terminology is to differentiate it from a "Straight-In" (aka runway-aligned) and a "Circling" approach. The essential difference is that the Cloudbreak won't necessarily line you up with anything in the vicinity of the runway.
This is intended as a warning to the pilot that he/she better have an idea of what sort of obstacles exist in the visual DR segment between the MAPt and the final approach alignment for landing. It may not necessarily mean that you'll need "local knowledge", although that is undoubtedly the safest option. But you should at least have studied an appropriate topographic chart of the area to familiarise yourself with potential hazards.
