Hmmm. Now thats one feature I hate. Real PITA when you accidently stall.
(Come on now, don't lie. I've been driving sticks for 30 years, in
everything from beetles to 18 wheelers. Everybody stalls them once in a
while.)

Now we're each entitled to our own opinion, but I'm curious. Of what use has
anyone found this feature?
