I probably have been jumping to conclusions based on a too cursory look

If you are using emacs-w3m which I think is a quite

reasonable thing to do, the mailto: hack fails.

I should perhaps also state for the record that this is not about
helping me personally; I have something that works now.

As I see it, the issue is with the default behaviour for which we have
the goal of providing as robustly as possible a means of sending an
email such that even a novice with an unconfigured emacs on darwin can
send back a bug report.

The default does this, and it is all about helping you.  You somehow broke

the default in your configuration.  Since you haven't told us how you broke

your own configuration, and the only potentially interesting part of the breakage

to *us* is if you broke it doing something that users shouldn't expect to cause the

breakage, then all the rest of the noise about browse-url and the like is just that

-- noise -- until you determine that whatever caused the issue should not have

done so.

Let us know if we can help you!
