(python-dev is not the best place for this.  If you want to submit a
proposed patch, please use the SourceForge bug tracker.  For more "how do I
do this" sorts of stuff, please use comp.lang.python (aka
python-list at python.org).  Your post sort of straddles both domains.)

All you need to do to get this to work is set your BROWSER environment
variable to "open":

    % env | grep BROWSER
    BROWSER=open
