 Replying to [comment:5 kovshenin]:
 > I don't think it matters all that much in the URL, but we already use
 `post_format` as a query var in edit.php and on the front end, and the
 taxonomy is also called `post_format`. Not sure it's really worth stepping
 away from the convention, for the little benefit that it would bring to
 this single URL.

 This isn't a query variable we link to; this is a shortcut for
 jumpstarting a post. The precedent is ?content=&excerpt= (though, oddly,
 post_title).
