I do this too. You get really good at doing it quickly. Just have a pin or needle handy.
Your options with no reverse as I know it are:
* lift the foot, back up the fabric and sew it again
* with the needle in the fabric, lift the foot and turn the fabric around and sew a few stitches
* pull the wrong side thread through and tie a knot (what Rodney and I do)
* Steve's method of holding the fabric (I imagine this might cause the feed dog to fray the fabric)
