Comment (by stephdau):

 I've added 2 patches, as a mean to maybe kickstart this happening.
  * [attachment:32359.diff] is the suggested functional change
  * [attachment:32359.1.diff] is the same, coupled with the required
 whitespace reformatting required because WordPress.com's name adds an
 extra space. :)

 The change adds `#https?://[^/]+\.wordpress\.com/[\d/]+/.+#i` as a
 provider, which checks for:
  * `https?://[^/]+\.`: WPCOM subdomain (caret-slash to avoid URL based
 trickery)
  * `/[\d/]+/.+`: WPCOM doesn'tallow users to modif the URL structure, so
 digit or slash (`/2015/06/04/`), then slug

 The API URL passes the basic `for` identifier (set as `WP`), as required
 by WPCOM.

 This only results in basic support (links), for now,and until a proper
 view handler is also written, which would be the next step. I've never
 written one of those, help appreciated. :)

 See attached screenshots.
