Comment (by joehoyle):

 I think per @iseulde's point, a search endpoint would be best here. As
 @danielbachhuber said, having `/wp/posts` or similar return different
 types seems like a really bad idea, it totally breaks out controller - per
 - type model, schema for endpoint etc.

 I'm still not sure why a `/batch` wouldn't suffice here though?
