But the way browse-url-browser-function is documented, it should be a
list of conses, not a list of lists. With your change, if
browse-url-browser-function is an alist, like the doc string implies,
the function will now fail. So other users out there might suffer.
I'd be okay with a backward compatible change that would work with
both forms, but such a change will have to be accompanied by a
suitable change in documentation.
Thanks.
