Let me answer my own question. (It's my specialty.)
You want the Matrix to be view transform multiplied by projection
transform. Here's the catch. If you were previously drawing in world
coordinates and you have code that looks like this:
line.Begin();
line.DrawTransform(outlineVerts,
Matrix.Multiply(device.Transform.View,
device.Transform.Projection), borderColor);
line.End();
you won't get what you're expecting. This is apparently because the
line.Begin() method changes your view and projection transforms. So you
have to calculate the matrix you're looking for *before* entering the
line drawing code.
