Hang on,

Dude! One step too many! Most unix browsers (and those that don't are deficient and stupid. Such as firefox by default) will goto a URL in the copy buffer (if a valid URL) if you middle click anywhere in the canvas.

FireFox on OpenSolaris is configured to do this by default. This clearly means that OpenSolaris (Solaris Community Edition) and NexentaOS (which is an Ubuntu userland on a Solaris kernel) are far superior to Linux.

:P
