  I think the system we have worked out for gitweb-webjumps is a
definite improvement over how magick-options works.

  This could be a job for a browser object class.  If the current buffer
is visiting a gitweb page, the browser object would be the corresponding
OPML url for that gitweb.  This browser object could be combined with
the `save' command, as usual.

  I don't know what will end up being the best interface for getting
these OPML files.  We'll have to experiment.
