I started poking into this last night. It looks doable. However, 
unfortunately for the OP, it's going to be a trick to get a line to fade 
out, as you can make a gradient brush, but not a gradient pen, so you'd 
need to make a skinny polygon instead of a line (so there is something 
to fill with the brush).

I started a bit of test code. It's in SVN:

Tests/GCTest.py
Tests/AlphaLine.py
