Comment (by jnylen0):

 I think we should keep the schema from [attachment:40748.diff].  Even if
 this is an internal-only endpoint, one of the strengths of the REST API is
 that it provides a standardized way to describe request and response
 formats.

 In this case it's really helpful for developers that want to use this
 endpoint, whether that's core developers or someone writing a plugin to
 add more functionality later on.  Adding a schema also sets a good example
 for future work.

 I don't have a preference on namespace between `dashboard/v1` and `wp-
 dashboard/v1`, just that the namespace contains exactly one slash.  I also
 think we should document this more explicitly and deprecate registration
 of endpoints that do not follow this pattern.

 Finally, agreed that this needs unit tests.
