I don't know if it was one of the NTSB recommendations, but in the aftermath the FAA came to us and wanted us to create an EICAS message that would tell the crew that the engine that just quit was too badly damaged to restart. The idea was to keep the crew from wasting time trying to get the engine(s) restarted and let them focus on flying the aircraft.
We responded that we didn't know how to do that - it was particularly difficult to determine the health of an engine when the engine wasn't actually running. Further, an engine rundown is a dynamic transient phenomena, and nearly all of our engine health algorithms are dependent on quasi steady-state conditions.
The FAA must have realized how impossible their request was because we never heard any more about it.
