One option you could use is the ability to create the future transactions in a 
subaccount of the relevant account. Simply use the “include subaccounts” when 
you want to look at future balances, and don’t include that account when you 
want only the current figures.

On the date that the future transactions take effect, edit the account to move 
it from the subaccount to the parent account.

I do this with my bank account as follows:

Account: Bank
Subaccount: Bank:Income due
Subaccount:Bank:Payments due

I create future deposits in the Bank:Income due account and future payments 
(mortgage, utilities, etc) in the Bank:Payments due account.

When I want the actual Bank account updated, I just open each subaccount, edit 
off the “:Income due” or “Payments due”, and the transaction is moved to the 
parent account.
