I'm not really picking up on any herky/jerky idling or stumbling upon driving away once the car turns itself back on after being in auto stop mode. I am amazed at how much of a shudder / heavy vibration happens when it lights itself back to life on occasion though. Seems much more pronounced than on other cars I've driven with auto start/stop.

You should be able to code out the auto start/stop if you wanted to with something like bimmercode or whatnot.
I have that same symbol in my dash when the system isn't ready, as well as a button to disengage it, but this jerky feeling is when the start/stop isn't active.
