Argh. I've been in the browser-based app too long, I simply forget that
URL handling isn't everywhere.

The main ones that IMO need a where-to-go-next hint are the messages
that arise when an external process step fails, like initdb, failure to
install the runtime, etc. It's /always/ necessary to ask a poster asking
for help for the installer log - and how many people don't post or ask
for help, just get stuck and confused?
