A350 has similar problem but just has an energy absorbing deceleration strap on the door. Hardly beyond the wit of man for Boeing to do the same.
They're being a bit funky at the moment with things like this (maybe FAA led?) as we've also been evicted from the OFCR (for TTOL) due to the fact that the emergency escape hatch lands in a seat with a sliding door and apparently THE WORLD WILL END if someone escapes into this seat while there's a passenger there.
