I would have thought the same... my Golf with DSG has an interlock that wont let me take the key out of the ignition until it is in Park... other cars I have had used a similar system
But a friend of mine I caught up with on the weekend always leaves his (manual) car in neutral, and uses the handbrake to make sure it doesnt run away
His logic seems to be that there is no risk of trying to start the car in gear and hitting the car in front... as opposed to a handbrake releasing the 2.5t of 4x4 and rolling into the car in front....
