Saabs, Audis, VWs, Opels, Volvos and so on, all of them with manual gearbox (the only car with automatic gearbox I have ever driven is a Saab 9-5 Aero) and I have never noticed that you need to push the clutch down to start the car.
My guess is that cars with manual gearboxes sold in the U.S. has that function since people there are used to automatics. Some cars with manual gearboxes sold in the U.S. also have "shift up" lights.
