Comment (by nacin):

 [attachment:38922.diff] follows the same pattern as #38920 which uses a
 localized rest_url which isn't really ideal. Is it worth having a helper a
 la ajaxurl? wp-api.js doesn't seem to expose a nice method for this.
 wp.api.url('wp/v2/tags') would be nice, perhaps. Or obviously I could use
 wp-api.js, but wanted to try this approach as a targeted diff.

 Obviously we wouldn't actually remove the old action, and instead
 deprecate it.
