I solved this problem by defining a Glyph that drew a line on its canvas, and using layout->overlay() to put it over the Image.  

I could offer code, if anyone is interested.  CAVEATS: I only draw vertical lines, and the Glyph is given the width and height of the Raster it will eventually be overlaid upon.
