May be not:
The OP ask for a diff (ediff) between current revision of a file against
any other revision.

It seem dvc-file-ediff make the diff between last changes in file (not
commited yet) against last revision.

I know xhg is able to extract a file of a given revision.
`xhg-revision-get-last-or-num-revision'
With that, a diff is possible with any other file.

So what is the similar  dvc command in other backends?

It should be good to ediff a file of a given revision against another
revision, and not only against the last changes.

Or may be it is already implemented and i miss it?
