Slide-slur

Often i will develop my own symbols that to me are more efficient than the traditional graphology. One such is the "Slide-slur," which is a slur with an arrowhead on the end, indicating a slur effect while bending the note, usually for bowed strings or melodic guitar-playing. The orthodox way of showing a continuing string bend is:

The symbol i use is clearer and less cluttered:

It would be great if MuseScore’s slur could have more graphic customizability (is that a word?). For example the user can define the number of bends or the roundness of the bend (it case it must be woven between a complicated series of notes and accidentals), or draw adjoining end symbols (arrows or dashes come to mind), as well as the dotted parameters, color, or boldness.
