Title:
  Alias 'browse' to xdg-open

Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in xdg-utils source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The 'sensible-browser' command is very useful, but it's a bit unwieldy
  to use everywhere in docs. How about aliasing the simple 'browse' to
  sensible-browser, so I can recommend things like:

    sudo apt install foo; browse http://locahost:2022/

  That would be crisp clean and friendly for current users.
