possible stopgap solution in the meantime for a similar effect to what Florian describes... have a quantized scale for ribbon position, then assign ribbon pressure to pitch bend or osc freq CV2 in , so you "press-wiggle" for vibrato?

We have to distiguish two things
Simple portamento: a scale based quantizer is like a keyboard, where you 
rip away some keys. A portamento like in a Minimoog will still work.
You do not need to modify the R2M, you simply put a slew rate limiter 
module in the CV path.

But I assume you wanted to describe with "Portamento" something 
different: You want to wiggle your finger on the ribbon and the result 
should be a vibrato; but if you move the finger further than the half of 
the next step in the scale, then the output should slide to this next 
step. Right?

If my assumption is right: very nice idea, but assumingly quite 
difficult to achieve. ;-/
