Comment:

 In [changeset:"39089"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="39089"
 REST API: Avoid default sanitization for polymorphic params.

 Some parameters (`title`, `content`, etc) are objects in the output, but
 allow objects or strings to be sent in updates for a more ergonomic
 interface. This is pretty weird behaviour, so the default sanitisation
 doesn't handle this. We instead handle this ourselves in the preparation.

 Props joehoyle, rachelbaker.
 Fixes #38529.
