I really would like to see more client diversity, especially (as Walter
mentioned) integrated clients. Android intents help to make Overbite
Android better integrated (tap a gopher:// link, it gets pushed to
Overbite, no configuration or "Select An Application" required) but other
than OverbiteFF there's really no desktop integrated substitute. 

Besides, Gopher's interface agnosticism is its strength, right? There
can be lots of paradigms to render a Gopher menu ...
