Functions like
(defun browse-url-chromium (url &optional _new-window)
"Ask the Chromium WWW browser to load URL.
Default to the URL around or before point. The strings in
variable `browse-url-chromium-arguments' are also passed to
Chromium."
(interactive (browse-url-interactive-arg "URL: "))
should each prompt differently, instead of just the hardwired "URL: ",
else the user can't be sure he really called the right function.

I started doing this ("Browse URL with Chromium: ") etc, but it's nice
to have a short prompt here, because URLs can be long, and it's nice if
they don't overflow.
So I think this probably shouldn't be done.
