I looked at a couple of Google's APIs. Most of them follow the model Pavlik outlined above. YouTube's API for instance has the notion of [PlaylistItems](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlistItems/insert) to add and remove items from a playlist. The membership is thus a resource by itself that can be created and deleted.

An example that hasn't come up yet can be found in [Gmail's API to modify labels of a message](https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/users/messages/modify). It "emulates a PATCH" to modify the message:

```http
POST https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/userId/messages/id/modify

{
  "addLabelIds": [
    string
  ],
  "removeLabelIds": [
    string
  ]
}
```
