My car does something similar: idle around 820 rpm when coasting, which drops to 740 rpm at standstill. I forgot what the consumption is then, but I'd also love to lower idle speed. I'm willing to bet that it is controlled by algorithms in the ECU, so changing it may not be easy, if at all possible.
