For context, I've noticed the following. I presume it has to do with how core data works but I'm unfamiliar with that, so I thought I'd share:

I've noticed there are two GET requests when the site editor is first loaded: http://wordpressnightly.local/wp-json/wp/v2/global-styles/87?_locale=user and http://wordpressnightly.local/wp-json/wp/v2/global-styles/87?context=edit&_locale=user.

Then the first time I click something in the GS sidebar (tested changing the line height or changing the background color) there's a new GET request to http://wordpressnightly.local/wp-json/wp/v2/global-styles/87?context=edit&_locale=user.

Finally, there's a POST to http://wordpressnightly.local/wp-json/wp/v2/global-styles/87?_locale=user when saving the data.

I've noticed there are two GET requests when the site editor is first loaded: http://wordpressnightly.local/wp-json/wp/v2/global-styles/87?_locale=user and http://wordpressnightly.local/wp-json/wp/v2/global-styles/87?context=edit&_locale=user.

Yes, that is unfortunately needed for now as right now we only receive the url as a "link" from the themes endpoint to the current user styles, so basically we just call that request to retrieve the "ID" and use the entities later. I preferred doing this over trying to "parse" the URL and extract the "id".

@youknowriad Can you please stop merging PRs before I or a member of the REST API team get a chance to even look at them. This was merged with 3 hours of it's creation, not giving me any time to review.

As mentioned, the post controller is the best way forward, so I have created a new PR here #36076. This endpoint needs unit tests ASAP if it is going to get into core.

Last I saw there was a disagreement between you and @TimothyBJacobs on whether the post controller is the best path forward, so feel free to continue the iterations there and we can make merge it once it's ready and approved.

For this PR, this was just a small PR addressing your own suggestions, so I don't see why I should have waited once it's approved by another core member.

There are teams, but we're all core committers and contributors here :) no need for drama.

@youknowriad Not everyone is full time on this project. Not giving contributors time to review your work, means that PRs are not correctly reviewed and mistakes and errors get merged. It is disrespectful not to give us this time. It is basically side stepping the code review process. I asked nicely, please wait for more time for feedback.
