Comment (by tfrommen):

 This is an interesting ticket, and it's also very similar to something I
 wanted to do for the longest time: have a "See in REST API" node in the
 admin bar that would link to the according REST API request both when
 editing a resource or when viewing it on the frontend. I imagined it
 making use of `get_queried_object(_id)`and conditionals, just like you, so
 having functions like `rest_get_route_for_(post|term)` would certainly
 help.

 That said, here are some minor nitpicks on the last patch, @dshanske:
 * You might want to remove that `error_log` on L1849. ;)
 * In PHP, the `instanceof` keyword is all lowercase (L1839).
 * Using `is_attachment` is unnecessary as `is_singular` will cover that,
 too.

 Also, why did you pass in `application/json` via `esc_attr` instead of
 just hard-coded right in the placeholder string (L1790)?

 Looking forward to having this in Core. Thanks! :)
