I've read that that transition has already occurred in British English. In any case, I don't hesitate to put the comma outside the quotes if that makes sense to me, though it's not considered correct in American usage (and I'm in the US). This is one point on which I agree with the Brits; now if we could just get them to change -ise back to -ize :-)
