Comment:

 Let's look into this for 4.9.

 I'm thinking that `/wp/v2/posts` should support a special argument like
 `?any_type=true` or perhaps `?type=post,page`, `?type=*`.  There may be
 some difficulties due to differences in response structure (in core, posts
 and pages are somewhat different, and attachments are very different).
