This is easily done on cable-driven throttle bodies and on some newer cars with electronic "Fly-By-Wire" throttle bodies. I believe all cars since 2005 are fly-by-wire. For example, on my 2007 Solstice, you cannot power shift. The throttle body automatically closes if you try to power shift. But newer models now allow this.
There is an aftermarket piggy-back kit that can allow for this (drive by wire only). You can program the delay for your normal shift time. When the clutch is engaged, the piggy-back reduces the throttle and then goes back to WOT after the programmed delayed. It is more beneficial for a turbo car because you can have the system keep the boost on....or at least help keep the turbo spooled. For an NA car, it just seems like being lazy.

EDIT----The piggy-back pulls ignition, not throttle. Oppss.... Here is the link....
