Another one I think is particularly important for Gemini:
TLS 1.2 sends client certificates in the clear, while with 1.3 they are
encrypted.

This is the most important one, I think. Sending client certificates inthe clear can be really bad for privacy, especially as they may containyour e-mail address, username and/or other sensitive information.

Even if the spec doesn't end up mandating 1.3, it might be worth
requiring it for servers which make use of client certificates.

Yep. Discussed here:
