--------------------------+-----------------------------
 Line 911 in the `WP_REST_Server` class currently uses a hard-coded 403
 error code. It should be calling upon `rest_authorization_required_code()`
 to determine the proper response code; e.g., 401 instead of a 403 whenever
 a user is not logged-in.

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 $response = new WP_Error( 'rest_forbidden', __( 'Sorry, you are not
 allowed to do that.' ), array( 'status' => 403 ) );
 }}}

 Should be:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 $response = new WP_Error( 'rest_forbidden', __( 'Sorry, you are not
 allowed to do that.' ), array( 'status' =>
 rest_authorization_required_code() ) );
 }}}
