Such a function is already in the works. svn_fs_node_history() has
been on my fs-schema-changes TODO list for some time. It would
essentially replace svn_fs_revisions_changed() (that crufty old piece
of poo), and would return a list of, among potential other things,
real paths and revisions in the ancestry of a node, including those
where a parent directory was copied but the node itself was unchanged.
