The name `with-url' suggests that Emacs has some sort of "current URL",
and that this macro temporarily specifies some particular URL as current.

That's not the case, is it?  So the name `with-url' doesn't fit
what it does.  (What does it do?)

We should change the name to something that fits what it does.
