Flexibility always sounds good to me, so I don't object. I suggest the
default should be nil, since w3m buffers are for presentation, not
editing, so the visual cue can be distracting / annoying, which I guess
was why Andrés reported the issue in the first place.

Less user-friendly and economical - let one developer spend a few
minutes once in creation and save all future users the hassle of hunting
down the problem, finding the documentation, and making the change
correctly. In this particular case, my guess is that it would take less
time for a developer to code a fix than to write the documentation
recipe.

@Katsumi-san: Use the current patch? Adopt Filipp's first suggestion
(I'll code it)?
