How to do an update-if-exists

I'm using the Java API to execute certain updates, using either scripts or
partial documents. If a document to be updated isn't found for whatever
reason, my requirements dictate that the code should fail silently and move
on. Currently I'm catching DocumentMissingException and logging it. Is
there a more eloquent way to implement this behavior? Ideally I'd like to
avoid the exception being thrown and just check the response to see if the
document exists, like with get.
