Short of that, can I update selected packages? It doesn't seem to be
possible, but I'm probably missing something. For example, I'd like to
update the zypper package:

# zypper update -t package zypper
Too many arguments.
Usage:
[...]
zypper install -t package zypper

-t package is not needed here, it is the default.

Actually zypper update -t package foo*? has been implemented recetly,
too :O) check zypper 0.11.0

Indeed, update foo* is accepted now -- I'm at 0.11.0 now, after updating
zypper.

But it doesn't look quite right:

# zypper update zypper
Reading installed packages...
Patch 'zypper' not found.

remember the -t package

-t package is the default for 'install'
-t patch is the default for 'update'


The following NEW packages are going to be installed:
obex-data-server openobex mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs libarchive2
gvfs-fuse fuse
libsoup gvfs-backends libsoup-2_4-1 libfuse2


Overall download size: 752.0 K. After the operation, additional 3.5 M will be
used.
Continue? [YES/no]:


It intends to update packages that I didn't specify.
Known bug?

Yes, see the other thread "zypper odds" here on zypp-devel.
