Depends on how you define it......
I say speed shifting is leaving the throttle most of the way down while shifting as fast as possible using the clutch.
Powershifting is holding the throttle to the floor the entire time while shifting AND using the clutch.
Shifting without the clutch is bound to screw somthing up and it isn't any faster than using the clutch if done right.

Clutchless shifting is basically the same as powershifting, as per your definition. Each has their downside, though.
With powershifting, there's the possibility of over-revving.
With clutchless shifting... Well, you know what can go wrong.
