There is no better way. I have been holding off on exposing this
because I didn't see a clear way to handle it because dashed and solid
lines have different default cap and join styles. It is now clear
that c good solution is to expose dash_capstyle, dash_joinstyle,
solid_capstyle, solid_joinstyle, as rc params and line properties.
Any forseeable problems with this approach?

Sorry for the slow response (I was travelling) -
I think that what you propose sounds very good
(I can't see any problems, but this might be a lack of imagination ;-).
Best,
