 I have 8 categories but I want to query only 3:
 1 taco
 2 burrito
 3 enchilada

 `/categories?slug=taco` only returns one item because there is no batch
 slug mechanism

 `/categories?include[]=1&include[]=2&include[]=3` returns all 3

 What I want:

 `/categories?slugs[]=taco&slugs[]=burrito&slugs[]=enchilada`

 The endpoints, by default, are way too slow to effectively be used with
 serial HTTP. The batching parameters are essential.
