Second question: is there any reasonable way to decouple the Transport
Layer Security requirement from the Gemini protocol itself?
Short answer: no.

Let me rephrase the question: would it be possible to edit the Gemini specification in such a way that it makes TLS a SHOULD, not a MUST.

This is purely an editorial adjustment, which would leave the door open for alternative transport layer beside TLS.

Thoughts?
