Ill take the chances with mine shortly. My pads are getting near the top of the list and I'll bleed the system with some Dot 4 at the same time.
I'll put some nickel antisieze on the threads provided I have no issues cracking them...
Galvanic corrosion is a universal issue, but clearly more prevalent with an electrolyte, which your environment lends itself to more than ours (for instance, I've never had pinch bolt issues with the A4 or S8 here, though when I've done the control arms, I've always reinstalled with new hardware and antisieze).
Brake fluid works against you of course...

2009 Volvo XC90 V8 R Design - has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
