Had an offline discussion with @lhofhansl and he brought up the use case of
having a snapshot at a known point in time (i.e. midnight last night) and
wanting to run Phoenix queries over it through MR. That seems like a good
reason to pass in the snapshot name rather than build it when the MR starts.
I'll commit this into 4.x and master. Nice work, @akshita-malhotra!
