The only good solution I've seen is to print a tower next to the part so that the print head can go to the tower and print a little bit to give the print time to cool (just a few seconds is usually enough. Keep the tower in a position such that when the head goes to it the fans blow on your part (if possible).
Instead of a tower, sometimes I print 2 or 3 or even 7 of the same part. While printing one parts the other parts all have time to cool.
this is the smartest dumb idea i've seen yet for dealing with this. on my small parts lift head has been extremely necessary so far. probably going to do the tower idea. make a little square extrude straight up next to my main model. i was spending lots of time trying to include bedwipes here and there but that requires it to go all the way back down then up again. this is way better.
