Comment (by joehoyle):

 > This is the opposite of how we handle type in the Comments Controller,
 where we change '' to comment. If we were to change '' -> default here, we
 would be consistent.

 I don't agree with this - the value is actually "comment", the value of
 "template" is never "default". The `template` field is somethat can have
 an relation set to a page-template, comment type is not the same in this
 regard.

 Also, I added patch with passing tests, because of how the available
 templates affect the route's `enum` I had to provide a way to register the
 route.
