Hadley would give better examples than me (and I'm no expert of SAS- 
SPSS) but with ggplots, in R, it is both very easy produce statistical  
plots (i.e. with results from lm's,various smoothers, data density  
etc.) and to overlay different graphics layers without having to take  
care of the scales, legends, etc.

NB: the website itself only demonstrates simple graphs done with one  
function (since its purpose is documentation) but overlaying two  
graphs is often as simple as adding them:
p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(x=wt, y=mpg)) + geom_point()
g <- geom_path(aes(x=wt,y=mpg, colour=qsec))
p + g
(this example is probably useless but it is only for demonstration  
purposes)
