I just saw this video (YouTube: b Sport Valkyrie 3(I can't post links)) about the Aston Martin Valkyrie, it also uses an automated sequential manual transmission and an electric motor inside it wich does exactly what I had in mind: it is used for low speed driving, as reverse, to smooth the shifts, to start the engine and for recuperation.
I don't exact know the internals of my gearbox, but replacing the reverse gear with a motor should be possible, if not I could mount the motor externally
