Comment (by dshanske):

 @TimothyBlynJacobs Been thinking about this and it ends up being a bit
 more complicated. You can, from a post type, for example, get the rest
 controller...but what is the best way to know what the resource is based
 on the post? I'm trying to figure out a more generic methodology.

 Are we safe just supporting the built-in controllers, and then adding a
 filter and putting the onus on people creating custom endpoints to handle
 that themselves?

 This is probably a good place for me to start.
