Easy: Set up a light, then go to the material room and change the light's diffuse color to black. You get a light that only does specular; Very convenient, I use them all the time. Only drawback is they still show as normal lights in the preview, so you have to turn them off while fine-tuning your lighting.

Of course!  Once someone points out a solution it always seems so simple and obvious.  Thanks for answering that question, I'll have to try that out.
