Yes, it is. And its simply not necessary. The car can happily creep along at idle RPM without using the clutch pedal, and that's probably only about 3 mph in 1st. So 10 mph is no problem, just give it a little gas.

2) using the clutch to stand still in an incline bad?
Yes, very. Use the brake or parking brake.
