That's interesting and seems very useful.  I haven't heard
someone is working for it, though.  Are numbers displayed on
emacs-w3m buffers?  Although it doesn't seem hard to show
consecutive numbers and to provide the command like `nn RET',
I'm worried that numbers may be noisy if there are a lot of
links.  What kind of user interface do you assume?

I will probably have to try lynx or links, however currently I
have no time since I'm urged to improve one of shimbun modules.
Doesn't it interest any other developers?

`数 RET' でリンクを辿れたらすごく便利な気がするのだけれど、画面
がうるさくなりそうだしなあ。どう思います?
