Sebastian,

You might also experiment with Null data to keep from plotting the ribbon in certain areas (that would be the same as transparent).  

However, what I think you are really asking for is the ability to plot area "behind" the grid Z order, or plot the grids with a command in any normal Z ordering.  I don't think this is currently possible, but is now included in suggestion #257.

I don't think it is possible but an easy alternative would be to color the bars of the index to reflect recession/non-recession periods.
