The car I mentioned earlier (with cruise control plus brake) also had flappy paddles. If you changed gear with them, it would revert back to auto control after a brief delay - it was occasionally handy if you wanted to set up for a corner that you could see, but the gearbox couldn't. It did work pretty well.
If you wanted full manual, you pushed the auto gear lever to the side. In that position, it only changed gear when it had to (because you were in a totally unsuitable gear). As well as the paddles, you could knock the gear level back and forth to go up and down (the paddles were an optional extra).
Perhaps there's a similar setup in the Aldi waiting to be discovered?
