I drive in manual mode a good bit. You can downshift pretty much at any point. As mentioned, it's the REV Limiter that keeps you from exceeding redline, not the transmission.
The only time I've seen the transmission do anything "automatic" in manual mode is downshift if you are going slow enough the engine would stall otherwise.
On the other end, you can bounce off the rev limiter to your hearts content as far as i can tell from practical experience.
