This is what gives us the current situation. There is no
interoperability because each client and server did it in a different
way, or not at all.

Since Gemini (for good reasons) have no User-Agent, no negotiation of
options, we must specify clearly how Unicode is handled or the
geminispace won't be safe for Unicode.
