Stabilzed Approach with white PAPI

Hi,

Trying to find a law (FAA/ICAO), if exists, about taking into account the PAPI or VASI when determining whether an approach is stabilzed.Every place I find talks about other references (ROD, Speed, Configuration, Check List etc.).Nothing about PAPI/VASI.
Heard someone mentioning that one can descent at a 1000fpm max ,have an all white VASI or PAPI, but still be considered as stabilzed when crossing the 1000 (IMC) or the 500 (VMC) mark.

Any opinions..?
Regards!
