Indeed, I saw this while browsing the documentation. However, it
doesn't do as it says-on-the-tin, at least not in my experience.
Instead of opening a new window (perhaps I should clarify that I mean:
split the window vertically if there's space, or horizontally
otherwise, a la M-x apropos) it looks for an already-present *text
broser* buffer and tries to send the new URL to this buffer. Do I have
it wrong? Did you test this yourself? Perhaps I should restart Emacs
to undo any customizations I've made and try again.

Cheers.
