I do not think there is enough clarity around the
updateaction type. For instance, when a CDS Service wants to suggestion the user add an additional attribute to a resource, should the resource be the complete FHIR resource (with the additional attribute) or just the single additional attribute?The same questions can be asked when attributes about the FHIR resource need to be modified or removed entirely.

Not requiring a complete resource for updates makes a lot of sense to me. For more complex resources (like orders), it's unlikely that the CDS service will have all of the details necessary to fully update the resource properly. The EMR is in the best position to "merge" changes proposed by the CDS service with the existing resource.

From discussion with @kpshek , @brynrhodes , @brettmarquard -
When FHIR PUTs or POSTs a resource, the client provides the entire resource. We should remain consistent with FHIR.
The consuming system could compare and only update the things that are different (and perhaps should as part of their concurrency checking).
When the CDS client provides an update, it should provide the entire resource.

In addition to what @isaacvetter said, we can evaluate a FHIR PATCH action in a future version of the specification.
