Default In wave, in blue hole at cloud level, hole closes, in IMC, then what?

The more common scenario that broke gliders few times in wave is that you are already flying close to VNE when you find yourself in a cloud since you already trying to escape. It can be a meter of seconds until you loose you wings. What do you do? Do you pull full spoilers at VNE? Or do you slow down first and zoom deeper in the cloud before opening spoilers? The 27 manual doesn't specifically says don't open spoiler at VNE but the common wisdom says don't.
