I get regular email newsletters containing containing URLs from various sources. Some of the websites work better in Firefox (my default browser), others work better in Safari.

It would be really convenient to be able to right click and select "Launch in Safari" rather than right clicking, selecting Copy, then switching to a Safari window, clicking in the URL bar, then pasting and hitting Return.

A simple left click on a URL should launch the default browser, as it currently does.

I envisage that others won't have the same setup as me, maybe they have more than two browsers. That is to say, the idea of one alternate browser would be sufficient for me, at the moment, but a more comprehensive enhancement would be the ability to specify "alternative browser #1", "alternative browser #2" ...

Note that DEVONthink Office sort of, kind of, has a facility like this, in that you can right click on a link and then select either the default app for that file type or a selection from all possible apps for that file type. That however can be very slow, since it goes through the process of seeing what apps you have on your system that can deal with that file type. I am definitely not requesting something as comprehensive as that, it's too slow and you get offered a myriad of choices.
