Comment (by aduth):

 >If the REST API content endpoints were in core, how would we rebuild core
 features (like Quick Draft) to use it?

 After chatting with @adamsilverstein , my take on this was to do a more
 thorough overhaul of the existing Quick Drafts, leveraging the
 [https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API/blob/develop/wp-api.js Backbone.js API
 client] proposed to be merged with the content endpoints. I was interested
 in seeing what it would look like to have Quick Posts operate exclusively
 on data from the posts endpoints, bootstrapping data on the initial page
 load using `rest_do_request` and maintaining a Backbone collection of
 drafts in browser state.
