I recalled I wrote the same suggestion to you last month. ;-)

TSUCHIYA Masatoshi implemented this variable in Jan 2004 for the
other purpose (to bind it to a certain Lisp function in
nnshimbun.el[1]), but it is just the thing for people like you.

Though I don't represent a majority (because I am a member of
the emacs-w3m team), I am satisfied with the nil value of this
variable.  I've set `w3m-make-new-session' to t in order to make
emacs-w3m pop a new tab up when Gnus (or other) requires to
visit a web page.  There is no much case for which I want to use
an external browser.  In such a case, I will type `M' in the
emacs-w3m buffer.  Anyway, I don't think it is necessary to set
it to a certain value in Gnus.
