Comment (by rachelbaker):

 To create comments with the WP REST API, we would like to use
 wp_new_comment(). This would allow us to take advantage of the filters,
 actions, and notifications already baked into wp_new_comment().

 For API use the REMOTE_ADDR attribute would not be reliable or populated,
 and will trigger a PHP Notice of Undefined Index.
