I have an aluminum shifter in my MJ... Holy Moly is that cold in the dead of winter... Don't try and shift it without gloves..
I would take the cam end out, and hit it with the sander to take rough or sharp spots off of it.

Love it!
Never driven a manual but I would imagine it would be so if you were in a situation were you had to turn the wheel quickly and shift at the same time it would minimize the amount of time you were only steering with one hand.
