Re: Duplicate and rotate a sketch / sketch entity normal to the sketch plane?
Create an offset surface of 0mm from the sketch. Then use Move Face / Rotate on the offset surface. Then loft between the two.
Re: Convenient tool / method for creating "tabs" (NOT sheet metal)
@tom_auger
YOU SAID — I'd love to do this without having to create a drawing just so I can extrude an edge that is already defined in some other geometry.
OK I’m assuming when you said without creating a drawing, that you actually meant - without creating a sketch.
You can create a flange by extruding an edge with thickness, using something called Thin-feature.
Re: Convenient tool / method for creating "tabs" (NOT sheet metal)
@tom_auger
Onshape lets you reuse sketch so you can have the tab shapes on your original sketch and Extrude Symmetric or Up to face with offset and the other end with Second end position.

Re: Is there a way to do a boolean operation with part from different tabs
Use the Derived feature to import a part from another tab.
