FWIW, that's what I've been doing.  I agree
that it's not a big deal to do that.

But I also think it wouldn't hurt to bind the
URL command as well.

Certainly that's not a super-important command.
And I'm generally against binding new keys by
default willy nilly.

If it were I, I'd bind that command to `W', but
I also wouldn't be afraid to later remove or
change that binding if a better use were found
for `W' in Info mode.
