What you say does happen. If I am at high RPM and push in the clutch and take my foot off the gas, the overrun kicks in, and I have infinite MPG until the rpm gets down to idle speed. Then I am at normal engine on coasting.
I have found that engine on coasting MPG is very dependent on your speed. This is because you are using idle fuel. More speed means more miles while burning that fuel.
