Clutch-by-wire?

Looks like Bosch has come up with something that is basically like a clutch-by-wire system that would be overall easier to learn/use for those that deal with traffic, etc.

I think there's still more details that I'd like to know about like pedal feel for the engagement point, how intrusive the system is when you want to drive in a spirited manner (or even launch the car), etc. Maybe a toggle switch or a sport mode that would ahve the system allow us to drive as if it's a regular manual that we can stall?

Overall though, I think if this gives left foot driving more life in the autmotive world and among your average consumers, I'd be all for it. The part where it'd make dealing with traffic better is really appealing to me.
