Is it possible to get Stata to plot the the baseline probability from
a probit along with the marginal effects?

Here's a toy example I have in mind. I would like to use marginsplot
to show the marginal effects, along with the baseline for 1980:

webuse union, clear
tabstat union, by(year)
probit union ib(80).year
estimates store probit

margins, at(year=80) post // get the baseline rate
matrix M = r(b)
local bl = M[1,1]

estimates restore probit
margins, dydx(year)
marginsplot, yline(`bl')

Unfortunately this does not quite work, since the baseline rate is off
the chart in this case. Is there a way to patch this up or a more
elegant way to do this?
