I think if you want additions, just use WWW. Gemini focus on content and
not formating.

Yes you can create cool website using some standard html tags and a
little bit of css. But Gemini choosed its own gmi format specially to
prevent some implementations to add this kind of cool features.
> Thoughts? Counterarguments?
WWW decadence was fun, let's never do it again :)
