Yeah, this is something we're concerned with as well. The reason we have it the way it is now is because we're concerned about having too many category-specific criteria. For instance, price would be nice to show on the front page, but we're hesitant to put a price input on the new post form, because it wouldn't be relevant to many posts (for instance posts about events or groups on campus).
For now, we're focused on keeping the posts as general as possible with only Title, Text, and Category options. In future I could see introducing different parameters for individual categories (price for selling something, location for events, etc.) but for now our priority is in making the new post process as frictionless as possible.
Thanks for the input though! I really appreciate another pair of eyes on a new product.
