On a 2 layer board, I use the auto-router to draw an initial ground net,
tidy it up by hand, do the same with power net(s), route the rest of the
board then draw a polygon over the whole lot which connects to ground.
Thus I'm adding a polygon to a layer that the auto-router has used after
it's done its routing. Maybe I'm missing something, but I couldn't see
how else you would do it.
