Boeing doesn't like it, but pretty much everyone I've flown the 767/757 for, as well as the MD80, disconnects the autopilot long before disconnecting the autothrottle. That said, no one lands manually with the autothrottle engaged...and the only way I can easily disconnect it prior to landing is with my hand!

Can't ever recall a case that required two hands on the yoke during landing.
