Imagine a scenario where lead IDs 4 and 5 are merged together in a Marketo instance. 5 is the "winning" ID, so querying the lead via the REST API returns data. However, if you query for data on lead ID 4, a successful API query is returned with no data in it. This means reconciling that 4 was merged into 5 difficult, and leaves a stray ID. Would it be possible to update results on merged records so that they pass something like "mergedInto" : 4 when this occurs?
Bonus points if the winning record also got a note like "mergedWith": 3,4,7 -- something that concatenates all records which have been merged into this winning record; this would be nice to help verify on both ends that a merge was successful.
