with your vertices selected hit insert, th that swaps to pivot location mode, hit v and the vertex you want in place, that will snap the pivot to the vertex you want to position on the vertex of the other cube, hit insert again. that puts you back on movement mode, try to snap em again

for components, just like before, make a selection of the components, in this case vertexes, hit insert, move the pivot wherever you want, hit insrt again, move the components...
(for more complex objects where you want smooth transitions like a blend etc...you´re screwed(try deforming them(with a lattice for example) until they are close and then snap the closests), but im confident byron will end that with its soft selection plugin...cant wait for it...)
