It does not.  There are some UI items that will hand a URL to the desktop environment's "open a URL" operation, but 
that relies on the user's chosen browser to do all the work and open a window to display the URL; it does not do any of 
the work of fetching or displaying the page itself (and it shouldn't - it should have the user's browser do it).

No, I don't.
