Comment (by dd32):

 Passing `rest_url( '/' )` into the header isn't useful, as it lacks the
 nonce, but ignoring that - I guess the main question is should we be
 pushing most clients to utilising the `wp-api` script, or rolling their
 own XHR handlers?

 One of the main reasons I've avoided using `wp-api` personally is that I
 haven't found any documentation of how I'm supposed to utilise it, I'm not
 sure others would've faired much better.
