So it's an EWW enhancement request.

An ephemeral box won't tell you later that you already visited
that URL in an external browser.

You could also have 3 faces for having used the link:

1. For having visited its destination in EWW.
2. For having visited its destination in an external browser.
3. For having visited its destination in both.

#1 could use a foreground color.  #2 could use an outline box.
#3 could use both.
