I haven't noticed any of the related issues (car moving slightly with clutch depressed on level ground, etc). And it's not every time, just occasionally, it's like the teeth won't mesh, and letting the car roll even very tiny amount resolves it.

But still, I'll move it up the list from "someday" to "soonish".

My car didn't roll with the clutch pedal to the floor either. The amount of power at idle is low enough that the friction from the weight of the car will prevent it from rolling, when things are just starting to get annoying. It will get worse with time though.
