Hm.  Well that doesn't narrow it down very much at all.

Yes, I know.  I dislike urlview, and using a gnome-terminal style approach to
URLs is not an option for me.  Frankly, I just want mutt to work in the manner
that Pine treats links, which I find commonsensical and realistic.  The only
thing holding me back from using mutt wholeheartedly is the pedantic treatment
of URLs.
