I think it would work well if snaps opened the way they do but left the other posts in a sort of sidebar on the left. Then you could go from snap to snap without having to move between the individual posts and the front page.
I don't know whether worrying about whether something is cloning RES is a problem. Why reinvent the wheel? This feature, in particular is excellent and highly functional. IMO, differentiation between reddit and snapzu should come from expanding beyond reddit's long-standing limitations. If anything, keeping things somewhat familiar would only help with user migration.

That sounds like a pretty great way to do it without just cloning RES.
