1. /?post_format=image : should be redirected to /type/image/
2. /?pagename=blog : should be redirected to /blog/
3. /?author_name=admin : should be redirected to /author/admin/

Unfortunately, they are not.

It can be done by filtering redirect_canonical() but it will be better  if it's being done by default as we can see that /?category_name=cat will be redirected to /category/cat/"	defect (bug)	new	normal	Awaiting Review	Canonical	3.4	normal		has-patch needs-testing dev-feedback
