I'm certain that it _can_ be done, but I don't know of any easy way. Here's one way of fudging it, though:
\score{\notes{ a4^"2" b4^"-2" }}
(you might want to try something like b4^"---2" instead)
BTW, you can also represent fingerings using ^N and _N. I find this occasionally useful for showing alternate fingerings.
Interesting technique, but I think this will produce only horizontal lines. What I'm looking for should be similar to the voice follower lines created with \property PianoStaff.followVoice . The chief difference, of course, is that the follower lines should follow from one fingering to the next. And it couldn't be automatic. There should be a way to indicate "put a shift line here" in the .ly file.
