-------------------------+-------------------------
 We fixed a few API bugs in 4.7 that required new error strings.  Some of
 these were during string freeze, so we repurposed existing strings rather
 than adding new ones.

 We should go through and update these to better messages and error codes.
 For example, [39440] added `rest_orderby_include_missing_include` which
 needs a more helpful message and a less verbose error code (see the
 `rest_no_search_term_defined` error
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-includes/rest-
 api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-posts-
 controller.php?rev=39440&marks=148,153#L135 immediately above]).
