Comment (by johnmoody):

 Trickier than it sounds.

 * GtkLabel doesn't support href using Pango markup[[BR]]
 * GtkLinkButton isn't supported until Gtk 2.10 (Are we still staying at
 2.6.10 for 98/ME compatability??)[[BR]]
 * libsexy is an add-on to Gtk, but overkill to add this new library just
 for a hyperlink[[BR]]
 * GnomeHRef useage would also require another library[[BR]]

 If we can move to Gtk 2.10, the GtkLinkButton is an option, if we think
 having a button with the URL on it is an acceptable solution.  Oh, for Gtk
 to support a clickable label.....
