Why would you need to execute a missed approach *only* for going back into the clouds and being below glideslope? What if you had been in the clouds the whole time?
That's the whole point to having higher minimums during a LOC approach. As long as you don't go below those minimums, and you haven't reached the MAP yet, then anywhere along the LOC at that altitude is safe.
I mean...shoot...if you're shooting a LOC approach, you don't even need to have GS reception!
I agree with DC3...get down as soon as you can, so you can plan your circle as soon as possible.
