The color of the handles could be improved to avoid these situations (where the handle matches the color of the selected item behind it). Take a look at Finale and Inkscape for a couple ideas. Of course any change would need to apply all handles in MuseScore in order to retain consistency.
In Finale the handles look similar to mini checkboxes. In Inkscape node handles are gray inside with an outline that is always contrasts with whatever is behind it.
It's not just limited to bracket - also affects beams, etc.

The problem may actually be, the more zoomed in it is, the less visible and harder it becomes to grab the handle.
Hopefully this is a better title.
I think the issue is, the handle is drawn underneath the edited object that than on top. Hopefully an easy fix? Kind of a drag (no pun intended) that zooming it is often needed to see the grips better in some cases, but makes it harder in others.

The handle is now drawn on top and use the frame color, same color than the polygon around slurs.
