Please do not post the same thing multiple times. The board software automatically flags certain posts as needing moderator attention. This happens the most often for new users. I'm pretty sure this is made clear at the time you attempt to post. Posting the same thing over and over again just makes that many more posts the moderators have to weed through later. This makes us sad. Don't make us sad. If your post/thread doesn't appear, just wait a while. Don't post it again. If it hasn't shown up by the next day, then you can try again. I normally go through posts in the mornings, and try to check a few times throughout the day, but I'm not here 24/7. There will typically be a significant delay before posts are approved. Just be patient.
Submit a new app for approval with the option for the Developer to release. App gets approved and I sit on it. Post an update for approval. Get approved and release 1.1 to the appstore as the first version to be available for sale.
The reason...
I have an app in the appstore for the US. In another country I have a distributor that will submit a localized version of the app using their branding and their own app name, app id, dev account... They need it avail in a month. I'd like to have them submit the app as it is today (change name, app id...) to get in line and get it approved in the upcoming weeks but not release for sale knowing that in a month I will have an updated version with some localization changes.
Not sure you can push an update to non-released app or what the consequences are. The app review queue is like 7 days, so you are not gaining anything more than one week doing your way. Personally, I would test the app thoroughly then submit a finished ready to be released version.
Good question though. I am sure someone has one this and hopefully they chime in on the issue.
Thanks BioBuff. Good point. Didn't realize the turnaround was 7 days for new apps (vs updates). I'm just trying to time this because it needs to be launched in conjunction with a desktop app. Hate to launch desktop with main feature being mobile companion app and not have that live at the same time.
The other option might be to release it for sale but remove it for sale almost immediately and post update. I figure this must happen when there's a critical bug and you don't want users downloading the app until an update is there.

You can do better. Set a release date in the future, like a couple months out, when you submit the app. Then release app the same day as you release the desktop one. Real simple and clean. Also allows you to download via promo code and test live before release.
