Sort of combination of /history and /full
There are several problems with this - one is that (as you've discovered) it is quite expensive to compute as you have to go back to the timestamps. Further back in history the timestamps may not even be accurate enough to give the correct answer in fact. as in the early days there were various inconsistencies in the way the timestamps were generated. On top of that it wouldn't really give the full picture - after all there may be multiple versions of a node in the time window for a given way version. So would need to create intermediate way versions to show places where the tags of the way stayed the same but the shape changed because a node was moved.
