 While working on a Calypso [pull request](https://github.com/Automattic
 /wp-calypso/pull/9751) to utilize the post types endpoint on
 WordPress.com, I hit a bit of a stumbling block with the current
 implementation.

 In the [WordPress.com
 API](https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/blob/master/json-
 endpoints/class.wpcom-json-api-list-post-types-endpoint.php#L61), the
 output of
 [get_all_post_type_supports](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_all_post_type_supports/)
 is returned in a {{{supports}}} object for each post type.

 Adding this object to the response stream was easy enough to do as a
 plugin via {{{register_rest_field}}}, but I figured it might be worth
 considering including in the core endpoint.
