I wrote the same answer for the "move" method a few minutes ago: The spec was developed to provide an easy possibility to modify an existing document. With this premise we decided to omit the "swap" method because one can achieve the same with "delete" and "insert". The spec isn't finally, so why not extending the current spec in the future? If there serious arguments for a "swap" element I'm not against an update. May be it's time for a new discussion...
