I'm with Hope, Greg, and Bill. Actions groups make the parallel/sequential feature amazingly powerful. It's the best solution to the problem that I can think of.
But I must admit, I have had projects where it was just too much trouble to organize into multiple, nested action groups. In those few case, I simply do a close approximation in OmniFocus and then use common sense when executing.
I think that's the key here: you can express all kinds of complexity with nested, parallel/sequential action groups, but you can reach a point of diminishing returns where it might just be quicker to use common sense and do the tasks. I do it both ways, depending on the circumstances. And one of the great things about OmniFocus is that it gives you that option.
