for normal driving, in my experience at least, the turbo does not spool up like mad unless you go hard on the throttle. If you increase rpms slowly with just a little bit of gas and then let go, no 'whoosh' is heard, ie no boost has been built up.
What you are talking about is only an issue on steep uphills at low rpms. When you're too lazy to change gears and you have 1500rpms for example, you have to floor the gas to get the car up the hill, then you get swept away by the turbo since boost builds up real quick. You must then let go of the throttle to continue your 'normal' driving :)
