Like a stall warning perhaps?
I'm not arguing for more or less automation, but more intelligence in terms of trend analysis, resolution of ambiguous situations and timely warnings where operation is tending towards potentially dangerous situations.

There isn't a lot of evidence, but what there is is quite powerful stuff.
