I think there's no such thing target vertical speed for decceleration in THR IDLE / OP DES.

I recall seeing something about target decceleration rate, similar to 10 kt per 10 s, but have no time to look it up now. The pitch command would be continiously adjusted to achieve and maintain that particular rate.
