As far as rolling them down, my last BMW ('99 328i) did this, so nothing new. I don't remember if that one closed the windows also, but I think it did.

I know comfort access allows you to close the windows by holding the handle longer than just to lock the doors. I couldn't get it to do it remotely with the key, but I might have just given up too soon if it takes as long as 15 seconds (maybe I only held it for 10...?)...
