Description

To create comments with the WP REST API, we would like to use wp_new_comment(). This would allow us to take advantage of the filters, actions, and notifications already baked into wp_new_comment().

'wp_new_comment()' does not allow the passing of 'comment_author_IP' and only sets the value from $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"].

For API use the REMOTE_ADDR attribute would not be reliable or populated, and will trigger a PHP Notice of Undefined Index.
