Comment (by alexkingorg):

 I started hacking on this a little differently before realizing there was
 an existing ticket for this. Having now reviewed the existing patch, they
 are better than what I had come up with with one exception: these don't
 allow you to do a manual WP_Query by standard format:

 {{{
 $q = new WP_Query(array(
         'post_format' => 'post-format-standard'
 ));
 }}}

 because they hook on 'request'.

 I've hooked on 'pre_get_posts' instead, which will also handle manual
 queries - I think this is important functionality to include. Perhaps we
 need to hook in on 'parse_query' instead to use the approach in Nacin's
 patch?

 Here is what I was hacking on, in case it is of interest.

 A big +1 from me on this functionality being desirable as a core feature.
