Even Concorde had a system that wouldn't allow the brakes to become effective until the wheels had spun up.... Is there any feasible reason you would WANT to land with the parking brake on?

If not (and I can't see that there is but I'm not yet a pilot) surely Airbus could have implemented a similar warning/advisory message on the ECAM or some kind of system that prevents the parking brake being applied while airborne?
