I haven't as the symptoms indicate an intermittent problem so I figured doing so would not be conclusive. It has started normally since and also got stuck engaged again.
One other data point is that following the initial incident where I shut it down with the neutral select switch, when I afterwards checked the relay (looking under the dash for a visible problem -- fortunately I'm still a slender build) it was very hot to the touch.
After the first incident when it happened again I just quickly yanked the relay from it's socket which disengaged the starter. (Reason being I still had to drive the car home from where it first occurred over seventy miles from home.)
