I don't know about ghost lines, but if your goal simply is alignment you might consider using the grid option. You can align the articulations according to one of the grid lines. Go to Page View and from the View menu you'll see Show Grid and you'll also see a grid options item which gives you many choices as to the grid.
A lower-tech trick you can use to check horizontal or vertical alignment of elements is to click the Staff tool, click and hold anywhere on the screen and move the mouse up or down, left or right. This displays temporary dashed lines (a flexible box, really) for as long as you hold the mouse button down. You can use the horizontal or vertical lines of the box to quickly check alignment.
