Personally, I don't think its a good idea to REQUIRE it.
It is a good idea to people to learn to drive a stick but as for requiring it, not so much.

I'm a big fan of stickshifts but with my nerve problem, driving one isn't always an option. I know that when I got my 02 Vette (auto) I wished it was a manual. But, on the drive home my left arm suddeny went into max pain mode and I couldn't touch anything with it. Got stuck in stop and go traffic and a stick you have sent me to near screaming.
