I put my left foot down as I'm stopping, with right foot on the rear brake. If it's flat, once a couple cars stop behind me, a lot of times I'll switch into neutral and leave my left foot on the peg for a quick shift into first. MSF would fuss at me, and truthfully it's probably a bad habit. Having said that, a lot of my riding is unfortunately around the city with lots of red lights, and getting a hand cramp is no fun.
