This isn't quite the same behavior if there are other windows open
(window A, and window B, with focus on window A; it will close window
B too). However, this alternative functionality might be usefully
when that behavior *is* what the OP wants :-)

You could use something like
:let url=expand('<cword>')|tabnew|exec 'r! lynx -dump '.url
You might have to do something to properly capture the URL (rather
than using the blunt-force "<cword>" expansion), and you might need
to escape certain characters in the URL before dumping it into a
command-line. But otherwise, the basics are in there and can be
mapped if needed.
