Comment:

 Uploaded a refresh patch mostly following @jnylen0's latest outline of
 functionality.

 Currently, the patch continues to check for the `$_GET` variable instead
 of pulling it from the `WP_REST_Request` object. I think that is a bit
 safer back-compat wise.

 I'm not strongly opposed to changing it to pull from the `WP_REST_Request`
 object if we think the impact will be low enough and it provides a
 meaningful benefit. But right now, even if we pulled from the request
 object, embeds still wouldn't work for internal requests.
