New submission from David Turner:

https://docs.python.org/2/library/webbrowser.html says "If the environment 
variable BROWSER exists, it is interpreted to override the platform default 
list of browsers, as a os.pathsep-separated list of browsers to try in order."

This is not actually what happens; instead, it is prepended to the 
platform-default list of browsers.
