Comment:

 Three points:

 1) Perhaps more thought is needed on how "normal" posts are marked as such
 - currently it appears to be the absence of a format, but I can't see how
 to use set_post_format to turn (for example) an aside back to "normal".

 2) Replying to [comment:64 nacin]:
 > post_format is registered to page, post, and attachment. Should that
 only be post?

 I'm in favour of keeping post_format available for page. Obviously not all
 formats are relevant but gallery, chat, video and image certainly are.

 3) An additional post format that may have merit is "liveblog" (or
 "live"). This is a type of post where additional content is being added
 while people are reading it. This could warrant changes to the way the
 post is displayed (such as auto-refresh) and input considerations
 (possibly the writer would use a custom edit box and the text would be
 appended to the beginning).
