Talked about this issue in our community meeting. We think this makes sense, especially from the operator persona.

Looking at the Traefik example, we fairly sure we want something less opinionated in terms of how many ports, certificates, etc and should be able to provide a more flexible experience. But there has to be some limit...

What level of customization are you looking for in the Gateway resource? When looking at the API specification, what level of customization would you expect for each type?

Also, how are you planning on managing TLS certificates with respect to the Gateway?

@mpstefan

For me, I generally hope to be able to reproduce the following.
In addition, annotations (required if using cert-manager)

Also, how are you planning on managing TLS certificates with respect to the Gateway?

For now, manual certificate management yet 😑.

Thanks @arukiidou, we'll be discussing this item at our next community meeting on Monday.

We discussed in our community meeting today.

We think it will be useful.

We're thinking about allowing cluster operators to fully customize annotations of the Gateway as well as Listeners. Do you think it will address your use case?

Thank you! Perhaps it will fit my use case
