You can try following steps:
1. Create new role
2. From Manage Apps assign write access to all the apps where you want to give modify rights.
3. Assign this role to your particular user.
4. Use this user in the REST calls.

With this approach we can allow user to make modification even without admin_all capability. I never got a chance to check delete operation but it's worth trying.
