Generally, that's just smarter programming, engine braking to reduce brake wear and preventing accidental run-away on long and steep downhill. It's not new. Some do it smoother, earlier, and less noticeable than others. My G does the same.
Where I came from, in the old days, people were taught to do this manually during driving school (auto or manual cars). Nowadays, computers do that.

How high rev are we talking about here? And, how long after you manually upshifted before the tranny decided to downshift again?
