I do want to add in a "Cage edit" type deformation command which could be used for tapering. Right now I'm not sure when it will happen though - hopefully in v4.

There is a tapered extrusion option in the current version already, you activate it by pushing this button in the Extrude command:

You can use the Construct > Fillet command to do that- if you have a polyline like this:
Select it and run the Construct > Fillet command. Points will be displayed on the corner and the prompt will read "Select corners or push done to do all". If you only want to round off some corners, select those and right click. If you want to do all corners just right click.
Then set a radius and smooth arc pieces will be put into those corner areas:
If those don't do what you were asking about then yes please post an example.
