What is the best practice for drawing RF grounded stubs?

oyvkar

Often when doing RF structures I need a cline where one end is connected to ground (grounded stub). 

The way I have been doing it is to add a static GND shape on the layer I need to connect to, and then do a net short operation to the cline. This way becomes a bit tedious and messy once the number of these RF grounded stubs gets high - so I was wondering if anyone has found a better way to do this?

The mess comes mostly from the large number of static solid shapes on the ground layer, waived DRC or multiple net short operations when counting vias and the need to modify as you go.
