I'm with you, Chef.
If I'm cruising up toward a corner in 5th, I just keep my foot on the gas and clutch in- the revs jump right up to where they need to be for 4th. Going to 3rd and 2nd, just a quick pop on the throttle while I'm shifting does the trick. I can't heel-toe to save my life, so it works great for me.
The most important thing (in my mind) is knowing where the revs needs to be at certain speeds.
