For the interim, you can use the ``hanging'' package from CTAN to use 
active characters and macros to get hanging punctuation after the 
example in _The TeXbook_.

For the latter, I just use a plain document setup which loads CMR 
instead of whatever fonts I've set up and pdfsync and use that for 
anything involving more than a bare minimum of textual editing.
