By all means, pursue the other suggestions such as the relay one, but symptoms relating to the relay are more likely to be arbitrary - ie. happen at any time, not relating to specific events.

Your examples above: "pulling out onto the street", "pull up to a stop sign", "begin to coast" all relate to going in or out of idle, and could definitely involve IAC or TPS issues. Here's a post I did on this which might be helpful: throttle body cleaning, TPS checking, IAC cleaning
