Hi. I have just tested this thing about ExternalWebBrowser.

Now I was thinking the use we can give to it. For example, what about
(somehow) being able to automatically open a link in the browser. Suppose
these exampels:

- In the welcome workspace, we have a lot of links. It would be great to be
able to doble click, ctrl + click, or something, that automatically opens
the URL in a tab of the default external browser.

- Automatically open the issue tracker in certain circumstances ?

- If we include PharoTips, there are a lot of tips that include links. It
would be cool to open them automatically.

What do you think ?

Cheers

Mariano
