So to the question: Is there a standard notation for Bebung on the
clavichord? Since this is not a period piece, I can't depend on tradition
to guide its use.

I found it!  In Donnington (p. 511), quoting CPE Bach and D.G. Türk.

it is a series of articulation dots over a longer note (examples show from 4 to 7), with or without a slur over them. Or, individual notes on the same pitch (for, I guess, a measured bebung), each with an articulation dot over it, all under a slur (or tie?).

How to do this in Finale is an exercise left to the student!

Türk notes that "This ornament can only be performed on a clavichord, and indeed on a very good one," so I think this is what you're looking for.
