Is Object>>break mentioned anywhere in Squeak documentation? I never
knew about it until now.  It also has no senders (for somewhat obvious
reasons), so there would be no problem changing it to something else
like #breakpoint.

Even without that, though, I don't think there's a real issue here.
If you're inside canvas code and want a breakpoint, use some other
receiver - the comment in the #break method itself uses "nil break" as
an example.
