 Replying to [comment:2 jnylen0]:
 > I think it's a bit silly not to include `status`:  we support querying
 for a post status unauthenticated, even if just for the default status of
 `publish` ([https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.7/src/wp-
 includes/rest-api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-posts-
 controller.php?marks=2177,2180#L2160 ref]) or `inherit` for attachments
 ([https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.7/src/wp-includes/rest-
 api/endpoints/class-wp-rest-attachments-controller.php?marks=636#L626
 ref]).

 FWIW, this has been the case since [https://github.com/WP-API/WP-
 API/commit/69f617d749e4f165b9e31c1c042eec45ade3e41f this commit]. Not sure
 why we made the decision then, but it does somewhat make sense to add this
 to the `view` context, if only to distinguish between `publish` and
 `inherit` (although `inherit` isn't actually allowed in WP on anything
 except `attachment`, to my knowledge).
