This backport would have been more intrusive if we also switched
the existing 1.7 code over from using svn_node_kind_t to svn_wc__db_kind_t.

If you really prefer that we can do it. But I'd argue it's extra work
for no gain. In trunk we already made the code use svn_kind_t.
For 1.7 we should primarily fix broken behaviour rather than investing
time in extra touches to make the code more beautiful.
