How would this be any different if you handled a snake right before and right after feeding? My thoughts are that they would be more likely to associate your hand with food increasing the chances of being bitten if you have to move them to feed.

After having owning many species over a span of the last 15-20 years, I can state with confidence that feeding a snake in it's cage does not make it more aggressive unless the only reason you're opening the cage is to feed...which wouldn't be the case because you'll also be opening the cage to handle your snake and do cleaning/water changes. At the end of the day it's up to you and your preference of what you want to do, though.
