Comment (by jnylen0):

 I don't think the patches here are taking the correct approach.  For one
 issue, this won't work with `rest_do_request()` in PHP-internal code; for
 another, it doesn't provide any way forward on performance (all fields
 will still be calculated, regardless of whether they are needed).
