. . .and if sink rate builds up just knock the levers slightly forward of the climb gate to get more power for a second or so and then retard.
Be careful. Below 100ft radalt the autothrust will disconnect if you do that, so make sure you do retard fully, as you said, or power will keep increasing. It's one of the "gothchas".
