There are 2 different Override switches, one manual and the other Auto. If you have the Auto on then you can just press the Reset and Jog off a limit, no need to go to settings page.
If you dont have the Auto set then you have to go to the settings page and press the manual override, you can then reset and jog off. In both cases as soon as the limit is closed again the limit switches become ready for your next attempt at machine destruction
.
Some people may prefer to go to the settings page and use the manual option, could be for reasons like you suggested but I prefer to just have the Auto limit on, saves hassles of changing pages etc.
Another option of course would be to set up a physical switch on your control panel and use that as a limit override.
