Description

What is the problem you are attempting to solve with this feature?

In situations where a Server is continuously sending down a Card on a regular interval, the UI can flicker and remove input content due to the Card being replaced.

A description of your proposed solution to the problem

It would be great to provide a diff-based update instead of completely replacing the card.
