Byte range PATCH

Hello HTTP WG,

I’m writing to pursue standardization of a PATCH media type to perform writes at specific offsets. This may be especially relevant to draft-tus-httpbis-resumable-uploads-protocol-02, if adopted. It can also serve as the foundation for other features, like segmented uploading, finishing indexes in video files, or other operations that require editing at specific positions in a file.

I wrote and published draft-wright-http-patch-byterange-00 <https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-wright-http-patch-byterange-00.html> for your consideration. Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,

Austin.
