As you already see, this is not possible/implemented at the moment. I was working to add more line types (especially for add the normal dash dot like you want), but was paused because the lack skills and time (time to learn the skills). Just saying that no client was claiming this till yet. But i also saw that many programs do not follow the norm very strict.

Maybe you need a special feature, go into Macros_recipes and Code_snippets, Topological_data_scripting.
My macros on Gist.github here complete macros Wiki and forum.
