This is really up to the writer of the provider (very often the service itself) to have the provider code correctly model how the service works. It very often doesn't and allows you to plan error-free what will fail during apply.
It's not an API issue but a terraform provider issue having missing or incomplete code (i.e. https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws )
