PROBLEM SOLVED!

Adjusted my clutch cable this afternoon - I believe it was engaging too close to the floor (in terms of pedal travel). That would have caused problems re-engaging any gear coasting with the engine stopped if there was even the smallest amount of clutch drag.

I ran errands this evening, and the transmission didn't balk / hang up once. In fact, it also seems to shift smoother (though that could just be placebo effect).
