I don't use that applet, and I think I would find that annoying.
Here's what I do.

I have a shell script:

=========
276 !$ cat ~/bin/urlhelper 
#!/bin/bash

SEL=$(xclip -o -selection primary)

if [ $? == 0 ] ; then
        xdg-open "$SEL"
fi
========


(be sure to emerge "xclip")

Bound to a hot-key using the xfce4 keyboard configuration to <Super>-g
(for GO). 

Then, whenever I know I have some url selected (I don't need an applet
to tell me) I just have to press the key combination and off it
goes. :-)
