An example of a useful dashed bezier-sandwich arpeggio
would be when indicating arpeggios presumed to have been
accidentally omitted from a manuscript, within an urtext
edition. I think it would even be preferable to the 
alternative of enclosing a solid bezier-sandwich arpeggio
within a bracket or (ha ha) parentheses. I could easily
see someone eventually asking for it.
