The speed up theory is for a tire blow out. I agree with the be gentle and no sudden movement on the gas or brakes of the TV and maybe actuate the trailer brakes 1/2 manually......hopefully the steering wheel is not so hard to handle that you can take one hand off the wheel to actuate the trailer brakes.
All this concern about being able to control the steering wheel with one hand! This should not be an issue with power steering, we use to do it all the time with a manual transmission, wait I still do it as I have a manual.
Best to apply trailer brakes and hold a steady speed. As mentioned earlier you need to stretch out the rope. If you try to slow even by backing off the throttle you will need more trailer brake.
I believe that the biggest issue is failure to recognize the sway early enough to control it.
