It is possible to draw lines with varying colors, and it is also possible to change the color, alpha and size of the shadow using shadowcolor, shadowsize and shadowalpha.

library(ggshadow)

ggplot(economics_long, aes(date, value01, group = variable, colour=value01, shadowcolor='grey', shadowalpha=0.5, shadowsize=5*(1-value01))) + geom_shadowline()

Shadow point example: geom_shadowpoint()
