Highlight a bar vertically

Using the vertical line tool, I can have a line run through the candle (which obfuscates the wicks), or I can thicken it but it displays over the selected bar, obfuscating everything. I'm trying to accomplish something like the extending rectangle tool, but vertically over a single bar. I want to highlight it and I want it to be behind the bar so I can still see the OHLC.

Is there anything like this that currently exists?

You can use the Drawing Tool like you are, just be aware of this setting that controls whether it is drawn above the bars or below them:
Chart Settings: Draw Non-Highlight Chart Drawings Underneath Main Graph and Studies (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Drawings menu)
