http://docs.python.org/library/webbrowser.html (currently for 2.7.2)
contains a table giving supported browser names. On Mac OS X
at least,  the string "safari" does indeed work, e.g.:

webbrowser.get("safari").open("http://cnn.com")

Yet "safari" does not appear in the table.

Interestingly, Google Chrome does not appear to be readily nameable/
explicitly launchable from this module. But that's a bug for another
team....
