should we just do like gnome-terminal and xchat?
when the mouse is over what seems to bwe an hyperlink, right clicking on them will add
the option to follow that link in a browser.
It would seem to me that for that we'd need the application to follow "a word" with
the mouse, and try to guess what's under it:
normal text => normal menu
hyperling => " + hyperlink
numeric exp => " + calculate
others?
although it may not seem much of an important feature (and maybe it isn't) it's an
insightfull one, imho.
