Comment (by joehoyle):

 Is `validate_callback' => null, // skip built-in validation of 'email'. `
 needed? The validation should actually be hooked via the
 `sanitize_callback` now the sanitize callback can return a WP_Error.
 Nothing should default to `validate_callback`, see
 https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-includes/rest-
 api.php#L858.
