This makes sense for requests because you are supposed to send an absolute
URI anyway, but I strongly disagree with this change for documents. It is
useful for those who serve the same content on HTTP and Gemini to be able
to have links that work on both. I would appreciate it if schemeless links
in gemtext continued to be allowed.

PS: When replying to emails on the list do I reply to the person I am
replying to and cc the list or just send to the list?
