Is there any way to construct a transaction manually?

With Bitcoin you can create an unsigned transaction, sign that transaction and then broadcast it. Is there anyway to do that with Monero? With all the fancy JSON, etc.

Why does Monero seem to only use the first six decimal places (and not the full 12)?

My current balance always shows the last six decimal places as 0 (eg: "Balance: 1.234567000000). Is this just me, or does Monero not currently use all 12 decimal places? Can this change in the future with a hard fork or something?

If I send money with Simplewallet, it'll show that I've both sent and received funds. Why?

Whenever I send funds with XMR and use the refresh command to check my balance, Simplewallet will show a number of transactions, some adding money to my account and some withdrawing money from my account. Why is this?
