My mother's Golf, which I used sometimes, has Start-Stop, and I never got used to it. Sometimes the system did the exact opposite of what I've expected.
So, I like to manually switch off the engine. If I'm going to wait at least 15 seconds, I turn it off, otherwise I keep it running. But since I don't drive in cities 90% of the time, unnecessary idling isn't much of a problem for me.
Concerning unnecessary idling: In my country it's forbidden and fined with up to 5000€ if you leave an engine on idle without a reason. And I think that's good.
