While it could be that emacs-w3m does not do the right thing with
mailto, it is still so that one cannot really know what `browse-url'
really points to.

Wouldn't it be a solution to just directly do what `browse-url' was
normally expected to do rather than relying on the user or the
third-party package having set everything up correctly?
