Engine off instead of idling?

It seems I'm seeing cars that start when the gas pedal is pushed.

Correct. Auto stop features are becoming more prevalent on new cars. I'm 95% sure its to save fuel. I don't see how it would benefit anything else.

Yeah I saw a GM report that said auto start/stop in the city is good for 2mpg easy in a car.

It's becoming widespread even on Diesels.
