Well it doesn't look exactly like a slur. But your publisher might be
satisfied with the Tie ratio:
\relative c'' {
c~ c
c( c)
\override Tie #'details #'ratio = #2
c~c
}
This does not change the start and end position of the tie but it is
more curved.

I heard this from several musicians that just read the score. They look
at each note (or slur or tie ...) only for the fraction of a second.
