Novelty in that it's rare. 
Decent control is similar to Hill start assist. It may be a rubicon thing. My manual in 4lo you can let off everything, no gas, no clutch, you hold on to the wheel and it will control your RPM to keep crawling up or down hills. Say you are crawling straight in 4lo and get to a levee, the computer will notice the need for RPM, increase it, and climb at a steady pace. It will lower the RPM and engine brake for you on the way down.
You can stand on the brake pedal and pull the EBrake and the damn thing won't stall. Computer will take over.
That's only in 4low or with the assist feature turned on.
ETA: I leave it off because it's weird when I let off the brake on an incline and the vehicle stays in the same spot.

Ah, it's scary when you're on a mountain trail going downhill in 4lo and you want to shift up to 2nd...for a second there it feels like there's no resistance and if it didn't go into gear you'd go careening down the mountain.
I thought it was amid shift feature like the start assist.
