Well, to use the Windows analogy, I'd be happy to open links from
Thunderbird and MSN Messenger as well, but probably not Chrome or IE.
The Android browser is different in the respect that if you tell
Windows that you are the default handler for HTTP URLs, IE will still
be able to both open a web page and follow its links without launching
the newly set default browser. In fact, having a browser ask you which
app you want to open a web page in every time you click a link seems a
bit redundant. Oh well, seems like I'll need to figure out some not-
too-nasty hack.
