Comment:

 We are in a string freeze for 4.7 and cannot introduce a new error
 message.

 I see two options here:

 1. We ignore the `include` `orderby` value if the request does not include
 the related `include` parameter.
 2. We remove support for the `'orderby' => 'include'` for 4.7.

 I would like to do Option #1 if possible, but we are running out of time
 here folks.
