Except, as the video shows, this is right-hand touching AND plucking and the left hand is NOT fingering the string--it's doing a slur on a different string. And the sheet-music notation for that is "standard" since Tarrega first introduced it about 100 years ago, though he probably picked it up from some folk musician.
