	av-98 and vf-1 daydream
	September 18th, 2019
	----------------------------------------

	This is mostly directed at solderpunk.

	I was thinking on AV-98 and VF-1 and how they're so wonderfully
	similar. It would be so neat to have a single client that could
	browse gopher & gemini protocols seemlessly, and they're kinda the
	perfect place to start that thought.

	But then I was thinking, "Oh, it would be terrible to start your
	journey thinking you're on Gemini and safely using TLS only to
	move into Gopher without realizing it and be unprotected." But if
	there was a way to differentiate between the modes, sort of like
	"battle mode" that visually indicated you were TLS protected, then
	things would be better.

	I thought about the way I've got my vim status bar configured to
	change color when I'm in insert vs normal modes and thought about
	that in VF1. One color for "secure" one color for "unsecure".
	That'd be neat, right? And what about onion addresses? VF-1 works
	quite well over tor, and onion addresses provide end-to-end
	encryption. So they could be safely grouped in the "secure" block,
	or maybe get a third color.

	And that's great for knowing where you are, but not where you're
	going. Colorizing links with matching colors would help indicate
	your options.

	But then again, not everybody like colors, so maybe a prefix on
	links or the bar like an "@" or a "!" or something? Or maybe
	that's a configuration option.

	Anyway, it's a whole bunch of thoughts about somebody elses code
	and clients and not my place at all to direct, but I thought I'd
	share my thinking in case it inspires anything in you.

	Cheers!
