 Awesome, thank you!

 rest_controller_class?
 We always want to make sure that `::get_rest_controller()` is an instance
 of the `rest_controller_class` and the `rest_controller_class` subclasses
 `WP_REST_Controller`.

 That's an interesting case. I'm fine with changing the accessibility to
 `public`. Especially given the extra validation.
