Comment:

 [attachment:19570.3.diff] is a more refined and testable patch for
 functionality, with some minimal styling and the addition of
 wonderboymusic's `get_post_format_meta()` function from #23347. Use in
 conjunction with #23347 to test theme fallback output.

 == Things that should be addressed before a first-run commit: ==

 * Wiring up the media modal to the image and gallery formats and inputs. A
 preview of the image/gallery should appear within a placeholder area and
 the input should be hidden, perhaps with `hide-if-js` rather than
 `type="hidden"`.

 == Further to-dos: ==

 * Screen option for show/hide of post format selector and fields.
 * Possible logic for intelligently not showing the selector/fields at all
 if a screen option is not explicitly chosen.
 * Tab styling that starts with a reusable base component for core. Semi-
 related: #17959
 * Icons for the tabs and smaller ones for the fields - URL, quote, quote
 source, embed code/URL, image, gallery (see no-JS for the last two).
 * Format-specific layouts for image, gallery, video, audio, and possibly
 status.
 * Post content label (e.g. "Transcript" for chat format).
 * Optional title for some formats - should always be able to edit, even if
 it's "click to edit" for the optional ones.
 * Auto-generation of post titles when it's not required. Should try to be
 smart with ones that may not contain any text, e.g. image (use caption or
 alt?).
 * Fetching of an inline preview for video/audio.
 * If we do #23282, also wiring up the media modal to video/audio.
 * Responsive layout considerations.
 * No-JS: selecting one should save a draft; query arg should select format
 on load (also useful beyond no-JS); image and gallery input, since there's
 no media modal.
 * Accessibility: tab ordering, particularly coming from the title, and any
 other considerations.
 * Help text.

 Anything in the second list or otherwise that should absolutely be done
 before a first-run commit?
