Organizations API doesn't provide full functionality

The Organizations API allows us to update an organization but certain fields we aren't able to retrieve the orginal values for to make sure that when we do inadvertantly update thier values from their current to the default value.

For example, the Get Organization endpoint (
GET /api/v1/organization
) will return this:
{
  "code": "string",
  "name": "string",
  "is_default": true,
  "external_id": "string"
}


Note that it doesn't provide a value for 
is_allow_registrations


Now, when calling the Update Organization endpoint, which allows me to set a value for 
is_allow_registrations
, I have no way to provide the current value making sure it doesn't default. This is particularly impossible with the .Net SDK because the model / arguments for this update function doesn't allow passing in null values for 
is_allow_registrations
 which might indicate during a 
PATCH
 operation to not update that particular field. So, essentially in .Net, any call to the UPDATE endpoint will set the value of 
is_allow_registrations
 in every case, so I must provide the current value to make sure I don't overwrite it.
