I guess there's really no reason a gemini client couldn't just open
a file:// url, maybe it's not that big a deal.
Shouldn't be too difficult to write a gemini browser/client to
understand the "file://" URL prefix instead of just "gemini://".
Though I do prefer just opening files locally with an appropriate
application (vim, gv, etc).
Heck, why not just run gemini over http. :-)
Install apache/nginx, host the *gmi files straight from it.
Granted, a normal web-browser will only see them as plaintext files,
and not actually be able to interact with them as a gemini client can.
