777 FMC'S have an option for a visual final along with the option of a pilot specified RW EXTENSION of upto 25 nm.
Other aircraft do to. But then plop in a waypoint at 5nm and not below 1900ft and the setup becomes a bit messy, especially at night, with the aircraft diving down afterward to get back on the 3° slope.
