I have found that using a toScript/fromScript seems to work OK for
everything but Alembics (I change hundreds of paths a day with scripts).
The Alembic files popup that dialog about 50% of the time with that method.
We don't use them often enough to script a fix (the artist just matches the
original node manually), but I would try grabbing the node values and
re-applying them.
