I applied this patch in a testing docker build.
Once I turned off "movie_passthrough", I started getting snapshots at
the full resolution.
Thanks.
I guess this should probably be merged into the codebase at some
point...

Sure, just provide the path name in the camera'sconf file. It can be
relative to target_dir or absolute to the file system:
# File name(without extension) for pictures relative to target directory
picture_filename /home/me/stills/%Y%m%d-%H:%M:%S
# File name(without extension) for movies relative to target directory
movie_filename videos/%Y%m%d-%H:%M:%S
