Olympus's innovative AF + manual mode

I might be wrong, but it seems very little has been said in magazines, reviews or forums about the rather clever, seamless AF + manual focus mode on E series Oly cameras. Being able to auto focus and then finish the focussing manually without having to switch any buttons, appears to be a unique innovation in Olympus cameras which perhaps deserves a little more note. Reviews only usually mention it in passing, such that unless you already own an Olympus, you would never get a clear impression of how it works.

In action, in a sticky focussing situation, it can save valuable seconds in bagging a shot, without having to fumble around for a manual focus button. Shouldn't this be made better known?
