How about this for a novel solution?

Require one of the pilots to have his hands on the controls during the approach, monitor the flight path / flight instruments and override / disconnect the automatic stuff if it does not perform as expected.

This just might work, and then we would not need to help Mr Boeing re-design all the systems.

Oops. Sorry. I see that it is already written in the operating manual.
