I would hope that regulatory authorities simply relax their functional mandate of automation in the newer aircraft. Airlines should follow suit, I can think of two operators of the A320 at which disconnecting the AP above 1000 feet requires a written explanation.

Just like ADvisory circulars etc are followed by airlines.. Manufacturers shall issue circulars to mandate manual flying. Otherwise, an uncapable person in the cockpit is a threat himself.
