I was thinking of 2 ways of achieving it in Finale :

1- Simply add a new tool in the smart shape toolbar
2- Add an option to the existing dashed slur to make it tapered of not

The first solution would be more flexible since for whatever reason both tapered and non-tapered dashed slurs could be used in the same document.

Tapered dotted slurs :

FWIW, Sibelius does these really nicely

--Unless you want to adjust them, in which case they're prone to disappear altogether!

Furthermore, putting one in is considerably more effortful than a normal slur:

normal slur: Select a note. Type S. Extend it one note at a time w. the spacebar.

dotted slur: Select a note. Select Line from the Create menu. In the dialog that appears, scroll down to the dotted slur and double-click it. Position the far end of the slur by dragging--and hope that it doesn't disappear when you do so.
