I realized it's impossible to change an Ad's Display URL "in-place", for a 
creative.

Is it possible to change the display URL globally, per campaign or per 
adGroup?

I have several campaigns with adGroups, all having the same Display URL, 
but I find it difficult to just change the URL

When I tried to change a displayURL in the Web interace, I realized that it 
actually deletes the creative, and creates a new, identical creative with 
its displayUrl set to the new value.


Doing the above via API means:

loop over all campaings
  loop over all adgroups
    loop over all creatives
        read creative properties
        delete creative (status=REMOVED)
        re-upload the same image to the same adgroup, 
        with the same properties, with different DisplayURL.

Is there simpler way to change a campaigns Display URL?


N.B. there's a bug in the API:
setting the DisplayURL doesn't return any error, but in face doing 
nothing.  I would expect it to either change the URL or raise an exception.
