Can I open a link in another window? The idea with this is that I can select a link, and with multiple windows open, I can specify where the =*eww*= window should show the link. If only two windows, then the new EWW buffer shows in the /other/ one.

Magnar Sveen's [[https://github.com/magnars/expand-region.el][expand-region]] project allows me to hit ~v~ in =visual= mode, and have the selection grow by syntactical units.
