What about queries?

Not to be messed with. The server decides.

Should redirect URLs be allowed to contain queries?

Yes.

If an original URL has a query in it but the client gets back a redirect

URL without a query, should the original query be appended?

No.

In short, client should not mess around with queries, aside from moving them along.

Please do not redefine the handling & meaning of what an URL is.

Fragments are different as they refer to an anchor within a target gemini/text. gemini/text has no concept of anchors, therefore fragments make no sense for gemini/text.

But they make sense for http://+text/html though.
