So having raised the subject some more feedback on the spec.

In terms of reading and writing there appear to be 4 verbs

read
delete
replace
append

All via HTTP POST

First question that springs to mind is did you consider using

1) HTTP Verbs such as PUT DELETE PATCH GET

2) SPARQL update or JSON PATCH for this kind of operation

3) The Changeset vocab [1]
