actually...synchro-rev would save you in this situation. i know its saved me...i accidentally pulled the stick too far left as i was downshifting and the synchro-rev revved to redline and bounced off the limiter. once i realized it bounced off the limiter i let off the gas and pushed it into the correct gear.

in this case, i never mis-shifted per say, but since the computer automatically over-revved for me, i realized my mistake before it was too late.
