This is a svn client problem not a svn API problem right?

If I do a svn log -v I can detect the copyfrom_path and _rev then
do the right diff unless I've missed something. I'll add it to
WorkBench GUI.

Well, you *can* solve the issue in the client by downloading all the
log paths and following the paths there - but I think the solution 1.1
would be providing would mean that the paths are resolved on the
repository side, and not revision logs need to be received by the
client.
