I'm a little uneasy about the use of an omission to imply "complete  
deletion." For instance, I'm trying to put together a custom fields  
service, and I have a typo that causes:

  "custom_fields" = (
        {id = 129; key = city; vaalue = Sacramento; },
        {id = 130; key = city; vaalue = Sandy; }
    )

Now I've just wiped out all of the custom fields in my blog for id's  
129 and 130?

Maybe a separate method would be better for adjustments to the actual  
topology of custom fields, instead of overloading it SO much in the  
post settings.

In general, I'd like to think that posting a blog post can at worst  
adversely affect THAT post.
