I should also point out that it really isn't an issue when the car is perfectly still. However, if I drop to neutral to coast over a speed bump, and want to go back into first because I'm going so slow, that is where it is a challenge to get into first when it is cold. The solution is easy though, just start in 2nd until the car is warmed up and all is well.
