Can (and indeed should) we use gzip compression when responding over a
HTTP/2 connection to improve performance for static files?

The HTTP/2 spec suggests not[1], at least when using TLS. So I was
wondering if there were more knowledgeable people here than me that could
weigh in with their opinion.
