It's enough to me to type `M-x bro RET' (`bro' is complemented
into `browse-url'), `M-x w3m RET', or just `RET' on a string that
looks like a url. Those commands copy the link location and pass
it to the browser.

Note that what we're talking about is a text/plain article (or
other) that is not rendered by emacs-w3m, like this:
http://git.gnus.org/
Currently there is only a button that Gnus adds using widget.el
(iff `gnus-treat-buttonize' is the default value). OTOH, an html
article rendered by emacs-w3m has the right click menu buttons on
links.
Not all users have and load emacs-w3m, so, maybe what we can do
will be to provide the right click menu like emacs-w3m only if
`mm-text-html-renderer' is `w3m', and the menu title should be
"emacs-w3m". Even in that case, we will have to make Lisp
functions for the menu items one by one. Because the article is
not rendered by emacs-w3m.
