--------------------------+-----------------
 As our support for validating and sanitizing has got better, we are making
 use of it more and more throughout the codebase. Already
 `rest_parse_request_arg` (which does all the auto validation /
 sanitization) is used for the schema in `get_item_schema`, it makes sense
 to just make `rest_parse_request_arg` the default sanitizer for all params
 if a `type` is specified in the options.

 This could be disabled with `sanitize_callback => false` etc.
