I use the following with a single-sided layout, for figures in the
right part of the text, bleeding 0.5 inches into the margin (with no
captions):

\definefloat[bleedfig][figure]
\setupfloat[bleedfig][rightmargindistance=-0.5in,default={force,none}]
\def\rfig#1{\placebleedfig[right,none]{}{\externalfigure[#1]}}

I learnt this method from Hans's details.pdf manual, which also has
information on getting the same idea to work using a double-sided
layout.  I'll eventually do that.

Menwahile, to use it:

  \rfig{somefile.pdf}

  Begin a paragraph, here's some text, and more text etc.

and the paragraph will be typeset around somefile.pdf, with
somefile.pdf bleeding into the right margin.

See chapters 3 and 4 at <http://web.mit.edu/18.098/> for examples.  I
learnt how to bleed the figures between writing chapters 2 and 3, so
chapters 1 and 2 don't have the 0.5in protrusion.  The source code is
at the same location (see env.tex in it).
