If you check, this also applies to your sunroof.

It is due to the fact that the windows and sunroof are tied into one of the
alarm modules and is a side effect of the "batman" feature that all 90 and
later 928s have. This feature allows you to close your windows and sunroof
from outside the car via your door locks. Simply hold the key in the "lock"
position and your windows and sunroof will close in sequence (if they are
open). Release the key once they are all closed fully or anywhere in between
if you desire.

You can also press each window switch and sunroof switch for 1 second and
they will open fully in the sequence you pressed the switches without any
further attention to the switches.  Very handy when you want to open the
windows and/or sunroof fully when you are driving at speed and need to focus
attention to areas other than the window/sunroof switches.

Resist this urge... TRUST ME !!!
