Comment(by nacin):

 Here's what I'm thinking:

 query var: two options, `format`, or the more conservative `post_format`.
 Not really a big deal as this would be hidden when pretty permalinks are
 enabled.

 rewrite slug: obvious one would be `format`. That said:

 I think I'd like to place a filter specifically on the rewrite slug. If
 that sounds unorthodox, keep in mind we have UI options on the permalinks
 page for category/tag base. *That* said, I'd actually entertain the idea
 of adding a UI option for format too though, assuming the active theme
 supports it. I know we shouldn't add options, but in this case, `format`
 is particularly ambiguous (more so than tag and category) and artificial,
 and I certainly see people wanting to change it to something that fits
 their style.

 If that's backed by the rest of the core team, I'll code it up.
