buttonized urls in bitex files

It is probably fairly common to have url-fields in bibtex entries
nowadays.

Editing bibtex files in Emacs using bibtex mode one can open such urls
by moving point onto them and calling browse-url.

I thought it would be great if the url-field would be
buttonized/clickable so that one could open the link by a single
mouse-click.

Browsing google I couldn't find anything along these lines. Is
something like this possible already? Does anybody have some code?
Could something like that be added to bibtex.el?

Add

;;; eval: (goto-address) ***

in your local variables section in the file [untested!], or use a
mode-hook (maybe).

Funny you should ask.  It's been added to the Emacs-CVS a few days ago.
