Yes, something like this would be useful, because you may not know the
exact revision where something changed, you just know its current
revision and want to see "the most recent change that produced this
content". (Of course, you can find out the last-changed-rev, but
right now it's inconvenient.)

But if you run 'svn log' on a file, you'll see all the revisions where
it changed.
