Think about that for a second. Making the decision to jump, while in re-entry, would result in the jumper most likely burning up in the last part of the space/upper atmosphere. Then the jumper has to free fall a long way before they can even think about popping a chute because of O2 and cold. Basically it's not a survivable event. When the shuttle broke up those people had little time to figure out what was wrong. And that's in there training. Address the problem, not abandon ship. I rather doubt they finished trying to fix the problem before the darn thing just came apart. That means no time to make the decision to jump much less the time to do it.
