Comment:

 We don't yet have a strategy for documenting parameters that have a
 dynamic list of values like this:

 `'enum' => array_values( get_post_format_slugs() ),`

 We can ignore the update to the `format` field if the value is the same as
 what's currently saved.  Does that make sense as a way to address the
 issue?
