George,
Nicely stated, and in fact "double clutch upshifting". However,it is a little misleading when you state "you aren't trying to match speeds like you have to on downshifting" in fact you do have to match the speeds. The speeds need to be slower when upshifting and releasing the clutch on the ideling engine slows the gears to the "matched" speed. If you revved the engine it would not be matched and consequently grind on the upshift.
Small point but just to clear it up.
Jim
