It's been too long since I posted to edit this, so I'll reply to my own comment: something else my car does that isn't at all unique and some people might be delighted to learn (if theirs supports it too), is that if you hold down the unlock button on the keyfob (rather than press it), it lowers all of the electric windows, and if you hold down the lock button, it raises them. Useful if you left one of your windows open and it starts raining; you don't need to go to the car to shut the windows.

Another German car feature. There's some regulation in the US that requires them to be coded not to go back up (but you can change the coding with a cable). Family has an X5 that will go down as you describe but not up for those reasons.
