------------------------------------+--------------------
 Most functions that accept a post ID or post object use `$post` as the
 parameter name.

 * Some functions use `$post_id` or just `$id`, which should be renamed to
 `$post`.
 * Some functions can accept a `WP_Post` object, but it's not explicitly
 documented:
  * `get_the_category()`
  * `get_the_category_list()`
  * `the_category()`
  * `get_the_tag_list()`
  * `get_the_term_list()`
  * `the_terms()`

 This ticket aims to bring some consistency.
