The Rise of "Logical Punctuation".
Somebody should totally engineer a font that does that; if Zapfino can have a special ligature for "Zapfino," you could certainly make ones for '".', '",', and '";'.
And yes, I just mixed punctuation styles. Period-in-quotes simply looks better.

I thought the font had a ligature for the string "Zapfino,". That was confusing.

You should be able to do it in TeX with \kern.
