Changes (by TimothyBlynJacobs):

 * keywords:  has-patch => has-patch close


Comment:

 I wonder how practical using this filter would be. If a site changed the
 REST API action with that filter, all the plugins that were creating a
 `wp_rest` nonce to call the REST API would no longer work. As such, the
 practicality here seems quite small and would probably be better served by
 a custom authentication filter. Because of that I think it may make sense
 to close the ticket, conditionally adding a close keyword.
