I have the first one but the problem is if you forget to throw it open before trying to opening the door w/the remote.

When I replaced the garage door in a previous house the installer put that lock on and added an extra screw to prevent it from being used. He explained that they get calls all the time from folks that locked the door and then used the opener and if that extra screw is not in there they don't warranty the damage.
When leaving on long vacations I put a padlock on the tracks like your second photo and disconnect the power to the opener for just that reason. Can't imagine using these things in the day to day (unless the door between the garage and house is at the front of the garage next to the garage door).
