Suggestion: url-view-url should put the URL on the kill ring

translators to read other languages for them.

In GNU Emacs 20.7.2 (i386-debian-linux-gnu, X toolkit) of Tue Jun 20
 2000 on raven configured using `configure i386-debian-linux-gnu
 --prefix=/usr --sharedstatedir=/var/lib --libexecdir=/usr/lib
 --localstatedir=/var/lib --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-pop=yes
 --with-x=yes --with-x-toolkit=yes'

I often want to include the URL of a web page in an Emacs buffer.
When I'm visiting the page with w3-mode, I can *see* the URL by typing
`v' (url-view-url), but that doesn't put the URL anyplace convenient
for me to retrieve.  (It appends the URL to the *Messages* buffer,
which is where I copy it from, but this is inconvenient).

I propose that url-view-url (and w3-view-this-url) call "kill-new" to
put the URL on the kill ring, thus allowing me to retrieve it with
C-y.
