I'm wondering if he may have a vaccum leak in the brake booster that seals up not long after he comes to a stop or if the booster was replaced with a larger unit, giving too big of a shot of air when the vaccum is applied to it.

Shot in the dark(pitch black actually) I know, but 700 rpm is just about perfect. Either that or there's something causing a lag in the response in the IAC valve when the throttle boddy shuts and the clutch is let out.
