if you add a basic API for clipboard stuff, i also would like to see a 
ver basic api - merely just a function

bool open_url(const char* url);

wich opens the url-string in the systems default browser. this is 
definitely a thing that comes handy for most apps and is also a thing 
that needs an abstraction via SDL because every platform handles this 
completely differently.

if you agree to add that function / mini-api, i could provide some 
source code snippets i have collected for win32 and linux.
