You actually should do this anyway, saves both brakes and gas. However, it drives those racing to the red light utterly insane.
I don't have a problem driving after cycling for weeks on end, but i do have two issues. 1) the power goes to my head and i drive like the lead footed a-hole we bemoan here. 2) i can't stand a traffic jam, if i have to wait two or more light cycles i die inside.
