Handbrake is not an editing tool. There are a number of applications already available for free or low cost on all the platforms supported by handbrake that will allow random cutting/splicing.
Would it be possible to use the "Live Preview" function to create the 'snippets', and then somehow select them and merge them into one ? Obviously labor intensive..
That's not supported and not something that's in the scope of the project. We have a narrow focus because it's a small team doing this in free time so making HandBrake a tool that does a lot of things well, just isn't going to happen. You really need to start looking into editing tools for this kind of work.
I appreciate your support of Handbrake. However, what the heck - total noobie here - but why not try to combine a few snips? I'll get back to you, eventually.. Thanks
