That’s why I believe we need further standards for any concrete use. PATCH intentionally leaves everything up to the media type of the PATCH request, not the implementation. With hindsight, at least one or two well-defined PATCH media types should have been defined at the same time as 5789 - their absence (especially JSON's) created a lot of confusion.
