I always leave it in 1st gear unless it's a long light and the car behind me has already seen me and stopped. I also like to move to one side of the lane or the other when I stop to give myself a spot to move to in case the guy behind me doesn't see me.

This is also a good idea because of oil, anti-freeze, and other drippings from cars and truck seems to be on the middle of the lane at a stop.
