The latter is built into longtable and supertabular (\endfoot,
\tabletail), for the former you could use the eepic package. Its
dotted or dashed lines can be put into a tabular environment. The
problem is that you need to estimate starting and end point:

\multicolumn{4}{c}{\dottedline[·]{3.75}(-5,0)(164,0)}\\
\multicolumn{4}{c}{\dottedline[-]{6.25}(-7.5,0)(166,0)}\\
\multicolumn{4}{c}{\dottedline[---]{12.5}(-7.5,0)(166,0)}\\
\multicolumn{4}{c}{\dottedline[--->]{12.5}(-7.5,0)(166,0)}\\
\multicolumn{4}{c}{\dottedline[>-->]{12.5}(-7.5,0)(166,0)}\\

The \dashline[stretch]{dash-length}[inter-dot-gap](x0,y0)(x1,y2)...
(xN,yN) might still produce non-pdfTeX code.
