I don't think it's a good idea, since many special-mode descendants
bind RET to useful commands. For goto-address-at-point to override
that would be a nuisance, I think.
True, but when I've specifically moved point to a URL it is usually because I want to follow the URL, not do whatever is bound to RET in the mode.
But this sounds like something that may differ between users, so perhaps we could add this controlled by a defcustom?
