Comment:

 > Note that this behavior was brought up in testing the REST API, but it
 is not specific to the API. The current behavior is present in `WP_Query`,
 so if it is deemed that this behavior should change, it should probably be
 changed in `WP_Query` rather than the API.

 Agree. The `orderby` param supports `post__in`, `post_parent__in` and
 `post_name__in`, so it would need to be supported for all of these.

 I'm not sure if it should be supported, as it could be seen as a minor BC
 break. The alternative would be improved documentation.
