Sorry for the delay.  Your approach seems perfectly reasonable.

I was going to suggest something like this:


\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"

\relative c'' {
  \key d \major
  \time 4/4
  \repeat volta 2 {
| d4 d8 d8~ d8 a4 d8(
  }
  \alternative {
{
  | e4. d8~ d8 cs4) a8
  | a4 a8 fs'8~ fs8 e4 d8
  -\tweak dash-definition
#'((0 0.3 0 0) (0.3 1 1 1))
  (
\bar ":|."
}
{
  | e4.
% -\tweak control-points
%   #'((-1 . 3.1) (3 . 3.6) (8 . 3.4) (10 . 1.5))
% (
d8~ d8 cs8) fs8 fs8~
}
  }
}


This works because you happen to have a note at the right pitch to 
attach the slur to.  If the music were different in the end of the first 
volta, I would have needed to use a hidden note.

Slur across alternate ending - with example

So I figured out how to make and adjust a slur on my own. I am really
wondering though if there is a more elegant way like how simple it is to do
\repeatTie.

 

\version "2.18.2"

 

\language "english"

 

\relative c'' {

\key d \major

\time 4/4

\repeat volta 2 {

 

d4 d8 d8~ d8 a4 d8(

}

 

\alternative {

{ e4. d8~ d8 cs4) a8 a4 a8 fs'8~ fs8 e4 d8 \bar ":|." } 

{  e4.-\tweak control-points #'((-1 . 3.1) (3 . 3.6) (8 . 3.4) (10 . 1.5)) (
d8~ d8 cs8)fs8 fs8~ } }

}
