Comment (by danielbachhuber):

 Just so it's clearly stated, as a developer:

 * I'd expect `is_home=>false` and `is_rest=>true` when I hook into
 `pre_get_posts` to filter a query.
 * I'd expect `is_rest=>true` when I use WP_Query inside of a custom
 endpoint callback, such that any callbacks hooked onto `pre_get_posts`
 know the appropriate context.

 For the greatest precision, `WP_Query` should set `is_rest=>true` any time
 it's called within `WP_REST_SERVER::dispatch()`.
