A more sensible approach would be to encode the entire thing as a single
stream (which is easy enough). 

You could then, afterwards, split this into multiple seperate files -
vorbis allows you to do sample-precise edits, like that. The tools don't
exist currently, but wouldn't be too hard to write.
