A RAD ALT on the tail link into the pitch computer and a filter that resists further pilot input.
"No aircraft works that way."
Cough beat me to it.

B777-300 have just such a system and have removed the tail skid as a result.

The semi-levered MLG also helps.

It also has a contact sensor just in case.
