* ## API Methods
*
* Most API methods follow the BREAD pattern, although not all BREAD methods are available for all resources.
* Most API methods have a similar signature, they either take just `options`, or both `object` and `options`.
* For RESTful resources `object` is always a model object of the correct type in the form `name: [{object}]`
* `options` is an object with several named properties, the possibilities are listed for each method.
*
* Read / Edit / Destroy routes expect some sort of identifier (id / slug / key) for which object they are handling
*
* All API methods take a context object as one of the options:
*
* @typedef context
* Context provides information for determining permissions. Usually a user, but sometimes an app, or the internal flag
* @param {Number} user (optional)
* @param {String} app (optional)
* @param {Boolean} internal (optional)
