Fwiw, there used to be a patch applied to emacs-snapshot (but not the
regular, non-snapshot Debian packages) that added this functionality,
debian-browse-url.dpatch. It was added back in 2006 by Romain Francoise,
in response to wishlist bug #373294. I wonder if that patch or some
version could be
Package: emacs23
Version: 23.2+1-4
Severity: wishlist
It would be nice if Emacs' `browse-url' function would use the x-www-browser
alternative and/or the browser selected in the desktop environment by default.
Right now it starts Iceweasel even though I selected chromium in both places
