You're looking for leaders. leaders is a TeX primitive used to repeat a box until it fills some space. I used xleaders here: the x stands for "expanded leaders", to ensure the dots are placed aligned with the margins.
I added three customisation points: fnoterulesep is the distance between two consecutive dots, and fnoterulechar is the character to be repeated. Here's an example with 2pt and .:
and here with 5pt and $bullet$:
I also added a fnoteruleaftersep to tweak the distance between the rule and the footnotes.

you should force the box height to .5pt (or adjust the vskips to total - the height of a the leaders dot).

@David Carlisle: do you mean the outer box or the inner box?
– Bernard
Sep 28 at 12:55
well anything, but the output routine leaves no space for a footnote rule so the rule has to be a construct that adds no vertical space, that's why the original had two vskips totalling -.5pt and a rule of height .5pt
– David Carlisle

Your solution also works fine. I will take it as a second option. Thanks very much for you time!!
