One way to skip a task, is to use "Hide-in-todo". Then the next task will become active. However, the "hide-in-todo" task never will, so you really are completely skipping it, not putting it off for later.
If you are working only on the PC, you might consider another strategy, which is, don't use "complete in order" but then, in your views, use "Next Actions" in your actions filters. Next-Actions are the first in their folder that are active. That way, you can easily go back and forth between Next Actions and Active Actions views. Of course, this may present problems if you want most of your tasks to show everything but only certain projects to show next actions. You would need to use advanced filtering for this. (I thought there was an advanced criteria "NextAction is true/false" -- is my nonstandard version correct that this doesn't exist?)
