Start/Stop on DSG + handbrake - nice behaviour :)

Not sure if it's known behaviour but I discovered something handy today

When you need to stop for long time - railroad crossing - when you press brake and S/S turn off the engine - then when you pull handbrake and switch to P(ark) you can release brake and S/S is still "on" - icon on the MFD + green "foot" icon on the dashboard.

Then, when you need to move - you need to press brake again, move gearlever to D(rive) then release handbrake and when you release break - engine will start like when you stop for a moment in the traffic.
