Using Iced to write a Gemini client - Shortcomings

I've been using Iced since version 0.3 to write my own Gemini client. For anyone interested in doing the same, the library is still missing (at least) these features:

• A way to scroll a container to the position where a certain item is drawn. This is required to implement proper page search: you look for a pattern, you find it, and now you want to position the scroll in such a way that the text is shown at the center.
• Rich text styling: I believe this is about to change soon, but there is no text decoration. To render links, I'm using buttons with no decoration other than a bottom border, as to imitate underlining. It is possible to change fonts and font sizes though.
