Comment (by westonruter):

 BTW: The [https://github.com/xwp/wp-customize-posts Customize Posts]
 plugin allows for a featured image change to be fully previewed in the
 Customizer. From first glance at the patch on this ticket, it also changes
 the behavior of the Featured Image metabox on the edit post screen to
 prevent the featured image from being set as soon as it is selected:
 instead, it populated a hidden input with the attachment ID which then
 gets handled during a `save_post` action. See https://github.com/xwp/wp-
 customize-posts/blob/0.6.1/php/class-wp-customize-featured-image-
 controller.php
