Ehh, maybe. I don't get why folks want to use browsers in the 
incredibly slow OSX X11, but to each their own. :) I *certainly* 
would want it to open in omniweb.

btw: i noticed the OSX windowing mechanism in XFree86 was recently 
rewritten and checked into CVS. Anyone tried it? Faster? Building 
XFree seemed daunting, so  i didn't try. :)

That's an OS X bug. Nothing to do with openurl. Reset your browser 
preference to omniweb. You have to do it often, generally.
