" You could use the graph editor to add a line on top of the bars."
Though you would have to draw the line by hand with the "Add line" tool,
which makes the whole process fairly unreliable. If you tried to edit the
y-axis properties, where there is a dialog geared towards adding a -yline-,
the initial problem of the line "popping under" would reappear.
