 We've introduced a bunch of functions, some with a relatively long list of
 arguments, which accept booleans:
 {{{
 function get_content_media( $type, &$content, $html = true, $remove =
 false, $limit = 0 )
 function get_content_audio( &$content, $html = true, $remove = false )
 function get_embedded_audio( &$content, $remove = false )
 function get_content_video( &$content, $html = true, $remove = false )
 function get_embedded_video( &$content, $remove = false )
 function get_content_images( &$content, $html = true, $remove = false,
 $limit = 0 )
 function get_content_image( &$content, $html = true, $remove = false )
 function get_content_galleries( &$content, $html = true, $remove = false,
 $limit = 0 )
 function get_post_galleries( $post_id = 0, $html = true )
 function get_post_gallery( $post_id = 0, $html = true )
 function get_content_chat( &$content, $remove = false )
 function get_content_quote( &$content, $remove = false, $replace = '' )
 function get_content_url( &$content, $remove = false )
 }}}
 I wonder if we can convert them to use arrays instead for future-proof
 changes, or at least switch from booleans to self-explanatory values, per
 our [http://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/coding-standards/php/#self-
 explanatory-flag-values-for-function-arguments coding standards].

 Otherwise, we might fall into a trap of `submit_button()`: #20492.
