Perhaps an infinite (or very high value) of the threshold can do the 
same as a flag for turning plasticity off?
Anyway, Jérôme, keep in mind that breaking a contact implies other 
things, as you can see in cohesive frictional law (e.g. breaking a 
contact in bending should disable tensile strength as well, also setting 
isReal=false must be done in some circumstances). Perhaps we will have 
to talk about this a bit because this contact law is not so easy to read...
