[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

This new function seems to add a feature of visiting a web page
by specifying a URL.  It is a reasonable future in principle,
but this implementation seems to be limited to some systems.

Which platfors does Emacs support this deature for?
Is it, perhaps, limited to MacOS and GNUstep?

Is it supported on ordinary GNU/Linux?

If it is supported on ordinary GNU/Linux,
it is ok to add support for GNUstep and MacOS.
But otherwise, we should add the support for ordinary GNU/Linux
first and add this after that.
