You can implement this solely using CSS. Use float: right for elements 
that should flow and set margins appropriately.

You can use almost any DocBook for this, it depends on semantic of stuff 
you want to place into margins. In your particular case using indexterm 
of specific type is probably the semantically precise markup to use.
