I have finally found some time to look into this. The fix turned out not to be difficult - the problem was a hard-coded 'revision 0' function paramter which could be replaced with a youngest common ancestor revision instead. History traversal now stops there. The fix has been nominated for 1.10.1. Barring unexpected problems it should become part of that release. Thanks again for your script! It helped me a lot.
