We have no reason to remove it if a user really needs it. ;)
The reason for having changed the command bound to the `M' key
was that the behavior of the present one simply took my fancy[1].
Having made them obsolete was overkill, I think now, so I deleted
those marks with `do not delete' comments.
Thanks for pointing it out.

Before the change the commands bound a key or a menu as follows:
w3m-external-view-this-url
-> Menu-bar, Link-menu (that mouse-3 pops up)
w3m-external-view-current-url
-> Menu-bar
w3m-view-url-with-external-browser
-> M-key, Tab-menu
