After the engine is fully warmed up, and I do the same, rpm's immediately drop to about 1100, then slowly sink back down to about 900 after a few seconds. Previously, either of these actions likely would have resulted in a stall. Drove the car home from Beach Haven in summer traffic (5+ miles along Long Beach Drive) and around town here later today. Haven't stalled once. Got to get over the habit of quickly blipping the accelerator, while braking, when I lift the clutch to come to a stop. I don't need to do that any more.

Now, just need to wait until the winter to see if the lack of Bypass Air Solenoid Valve automatic functions impacts driveability at all.

Great news! Looks like the community might just have a "seamless" MT install now
