I see that question or answer revisions can be returned from the API either by post ID or by GUID.

I'd like to obtain this data filtered by user, e.g. "all revisions made by user X". However, I cannot see there is any way to do so. There are common parameters available (min, max, fromdate, todate, and sort) but user_id does not seem to be among them.

I know I can see suggested edits, but if I understand it correctly, this only applies to users under the immediate-approve threshold, and thus won't capture revisions from higher-rep users.

Is what I want to do possible?

Interestingly, it seems that screen-scraping is unexpectedly not verbotenscreen-scraping is unexpectedly not verboten. Perhaps that is an option, in lieu of a specific API feature?
