Exclamation G/S indications before commencement of descent

To pick up on a point raised by Big Pistons Forever:

My SOPs state that it is not permitted to join the glideslope from above (presumably to avoid situations of the kind BPF describes). Is there any one who would accept an approach descending onto the g/s then continuing down the slope? If so, what procedures are in place to prevent excessive RoD & inadequate terrain clearance?

I fly an ac with no ILS coupling and no GPWS of any sort.
