======
`REPLACE` command for updating replaceables
-------------------------------------------
`draft` `optional`
This NIP defines a new message, `REPLACE`, that clients can use to publish _replaceable_ and _addressable_ events to relays.
It works like `EVENT`, but together with the event JSON, the client also sends the id of the event they are replacing.
```jsonc
["REPLACE", "<id-of-event-being-replaced>", "<new-event>"]
```
Upon receiving this message, relays should check if the `<id-of-event-being-replaced>` corresponds to the latest event id they have stored locally that corresponds to the new replaceable event being received.
If it does correspond, it responds with an `OK` normally; otherwise it responds with something I'm not sure but that allows the client to fix its stuff.
