Of course, but that doesn't change the actual issue: I don't think there
is any interface to actually implement /proc/*/fd either.

See msg.defs.

That will give only ports to the fds.  How to get back to actual file
paths?

That actually rings a bell from some other Hurd issue. Isn't there some bit of purest thinking that we have no right to assume that a file descripter actually implies a physical file, hence the question just cannot be asked. If that is so then the best Hurd might ever be able to offer lsof is the current /proc file system.
