Comment (by maxcutler):

 Ok, another rev of the patch.

 I've extracted the return value preparation code into a new function
 ('prepare_post') so that it can be reused in wp.getPost (#18432).

 I've added 'orderby' and 'order' to the filters parameter to allow sorting
 of the resultset.

 I'm tempted to abandon the back-compat naming convention in the return
 value, and instead use the variable names used internally by WordPress
 (e.g., "comment_status" instead of "mt_allow_comments"). I know this would
 make it a little harder for existing apps to upgrade to the new API, but I
 think it buys us a lot more flexibility in the future to evolve the wp.*
 API namespace independent of the legacy APIs. Thoughts?
