6 speed manual without the clutch pedal

This would be pretty cool. Having a 6 speed manual but without a clutch. Would you get one if they did make them? I sure would. No flaming. Either way,

Defeats the purpose of Manual.
This is basically a tectronic thing.

I think you play too much arcade racing games where they have no clutch and manual operated gearbox. But seriously, its like the tipronic thing...but you get 7 speed instead of 6. More gears, baby!

Actually I never go to the arcade. I just get tried of shifting all the time, especially in traffic. At the same time, half the fun in manual is the shifting part. So I was thinking a manual without the clutch pedal would be fun.

The early Porsche 912 also had a clutchless pedal manual transmission.
