 Currently it's possible to filter the results of `wp_query->get_posts`
 using either the 'posts_results' or 'the_posts' filters. There's no way to
 filter the results of the `get_post` function, however.

 Providing a filter for when a WP_Post is instantiated would allow
 themes/plugins with custom post types to add properties and such when the
 post(s) are retrieved. Currently wrapper functions such as get_event_post
 have to be made. It would be great if the standard WordPress functions
 could be used and CPT results reliably structured.
