(Extending my original answer)
Mine-full should just be implemented as a simple resolve without changing the file. The right 'mine' file is already in the right place on a conflict of a binary file.
Creating a copy of a file, to allow replacing the original file with an identical copy is not that useful.
For text conflicts we create a file with conflict markers, and make the original file available as mine.
For binary files we can't (and don't) create such a file, so the file is untouched.
Where does creating a copy help?
