[BUG] [Desktop] Regression: "Open in external browser" button removed from Browser pane

What's Wrong?

Desktop app (GUI, not the CLI/TUI). The Browser pane used to have a button that opened the current page in my default browser in one click. It’s gone in [version]. Now I have to copy the URL, switch to my browser, open a tab, paste and press Enter.

What Should Happen?

Restore the button, or add “Open in default browser” to the pane’s ⋮ menu or to a right-click menu.
