It's happened since I bought the car new, again today getting around a Mustang crawling over a minor RR crossing, with lots of clutch smell from the slippage. Is this just the traction control ( usually off if I remember to ) or an issue with the slave/fluid?

It's the master and/or slave cylinder. The slave is a CSC that is inside the transmission, so it needs to be dropped to replace. You can visually inspect it by prying the rubber dust cover were the clutch line meets the slave. Watch for fluid leaks.
