Comment (by espellcaste):

 I'd like a second opinion from @imath.

 I personally think this is a minor teak in the code but it opens the
 possibility of new requests for new fields in the future.

 The REST API tries to add as little content as possible, usually providing
 IDs so that the client can request more using the `_embed` field.

 @niftythree Could also just hook into https://github.com/buddypress/BP-
 REST/blob/fbd9eab4cb37a1fd0068504e918e2af58b94e528/includes/bp-
 messages/classes/class-bp-rest-messages-endpoint.php#L909 and add the name
 of the user themselves.
