I did a search first but didn't see anyone commenting on this. Has anyone figured out how to get the voice recognition (in freeform text entry) to recognize punctuation? A special trick or something?

You simply say, "Question mark" or comma or something, it won't write the word, it should do that punctuation (although I only think it does this while writing texts).

Just say the character name
 
Hmm, I tried that and it didn't work. I'll try again.

Edit: I see, you have to do it in the flow of text a bit more carefully than I was doing. Thanks for the tip. this is going to take some getting used to.
