 In the Posts list table, when posts have a post format, an icon link is
 displayed next to the Post title (see screenshot below).

 Ideally, since this is a tabular data, the post format should be in a
 dedicated table column. By the way, list tables have already several
 columns and plugins can add their own ones so this change should be
 carefully considered and would probably require some discussion.

 Meanwhile, there are a couple of simple improvements that could be easily
 implemented:

 '''Clarify the link purpose'''
 Currently the link says, for example, "Video" while clicking on it brings
 users to a list of all posts with that format. It should probably say
 "View all posts with video format" and at the same time make clear that
 post has a video format. Bit tricky but I'm confident a proper wording
 would solve this issue.

 '''Color contrast'''
 Should be improved. The icon's color is `#ddd` on a background color
 `#ffffff` or `#f9f9f9` with a contrast of, respectively, 1.4:1 and 1.3:1.
 Should be at least 4.5:1.
