> Most operations don't follow any "overwrite" concept.
> To emulate it, one needs to check for existence of a resource, conditionally delete it, and then create the new one.
> This is not easily applicable in a batch.
> Implementing overwrite for all actions would be tedious.
> But this could help:
> Another "standard" property (similar to {{address}} and {{op-name}}) "onFail=ignore" or such, which would make the operation not fail if an exception occurs. A short CLI syntax could be a '?' at the end of operation's name:
> {code}
> /foo=bar/boo=baz:remove?()
> {code}
> This would allow mgmt API users to queue a removing operation without knowing if it exists; thus, effectively, doing an overwrite.
