This is happiness and light for tracking/overdubbing. New takes stack up in lanes in the recording track. The workflow is usually to use a single recording track like a "recording bin" and leave it un-monitored. Fly takes you like into the mix tracks you dial up. (The 'move item up/down a track' actions on the number pad keys are convenient for that.)

The default 'takes' mode puts all subsequent new takes into the first recorded audio item to make a multi stream item that lets you click to select which stream plays back. This one is clumsy to me vs lanes mode but YMMV.
Is that only available on the pre-release versions of Reaper? I don't see any of those options on Reaper 6.68
