This is something our previous 06 Civic hybrid had, maybe Honda's still using it in various models, and I really miss it on our Prius:

If you set the wipers on the fastest intermittent speed: when stopped they do fast intermittent, but once you start rolling they go to regular low speed wiping. Come to a stop, they go back to fast intermittent. And so on.

It's brilliant, and with our Prius it's something I'm constantly having to do by hand. I don't like to sit 3~4 minutes at a red light with the wipers whipping steadily.

That'll be "Speed-sensitive variable intermittent wipers".

Yeah I find myself manually do that (my smart fortwo had that feature). I guess the top models have rain-sensing wipers now but it'll be nice if the lower trims had speed-sensitive wipers.
