so I have a really similar workflow for the period of time the calendar year and our tax year are out of sync and I have to keep future data out of the production data will become our semi-annual tax year release. I just created new parcel fabric types called "future_tax", "future_lots" etc that fit my needs. I sketch everything there, build the fabric, and when the calendars sync back up I mark the old parcels historic and copy/paste from the "future" layers. This functions similarly to having parcels suspended in construction in the old parcel fabric. except this way you can actually use the align tools if you need to rotate/move the parcels when you sketch it in versus having to wait.    w/r/t using the new traverse tool to make multiple parcels at the same time: you really can't the way we used to in the old fabric. this new traverse tool is more analogous to the traverse tool in vanilla ArcMap, not the parcel fabric version if you ever used that. what I have taken to doing is entering the calls for the boundary with all the breaks, then using the construct tool with the calls entered in the attributes pane if it's something simple like a 2 or 3 lot subdivision. big multi-lot subdivisions require a bit more work, and my workflow is generally like this: 1: enter calls for the subdivision boundary in subdivision layer, add seed for subdivision polygon 2: manually copy the subdivision lines to the tax layer or lot layer 3: use the divide tool on the boundary in the tax/lot layer to set up the outer boundaries 4a: enter street centerlines calls and use the copy parallel tool to generate blocks ---or--- 4b: enter interior lot line calls using the traverse tool to construct blocks  5: use create features to create lot lines between interior and exterior boundaries ...
