Sometimes I have put in T for 5BrU and then changed the names of the
relevant atoms and refine to get the right bond length.
Best not to go Bill Gates on this.

(a) give up immediately, with a "stupid user" (or some such) message?

I think (b) and (c) are non-starters as they may do 'the wrong
thing' leaving the user a booby trap for later on.
I imagine that the most likely causes for getting into that position
are (1) "I meant U, not T" or (2) "I got confused and thought I was
generating DNA", so I would suggest some kind of message which gets
people on the correct path asap.
