How do fellows usually view links in a external browser when reading a
message in gnus?

Sure, to view them internally we can just hit RET on them and up comes
emacs-w3m, etc.

But to view them externally, the best we can do is copy/kill the region
containing the link, then change to our Firefox etc. browser window, and
paste it into the URL bar, and hit RET.

Rather cavewomanish in this day and age.

Or one can click them, and then in emacs-w3m hit M. Browsing the same
link twice.

It's all because gnus-version "Gnus v5.13" lacks right click menus.
