Comment (by Keiser Media):

 The issue that I see is that Post Formats feel like a half thought out
 idea. The attitude towards it is that it is a complete feature but at the
 moment, it is only half a feature. The issue, in developing themes, is
 what if you have a video post format but you also want to have content?
 You can have one or the other, not both. However, the reality is most
 people want a video plus content. Without a UI structure that supports
 this ''option'' (emphasis on option), post formats are half a working
 system.
