Verbatim is a style just like bold or italic, so you can toggle
<Ctrl>T to turn it off while typing. The odd thing is that if you are
on a new line after a verbatim paragraph and toggle <Ctrl>T the indent
does not go away until you start typing. You can look at the statusbar
to get feedback whether you are in Verbatim or in normal style mode.

I have one suggestion lying around to make <Esc> toggle off all styles
and return to normal mode (effectively an alias for <Ctrl>6). I'm
considering adding this key binding in the next release because it
seems quite intuitive.
