Title:
  Alias 'browse' to xdg-open

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

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  The 'sensible-browser' and 'xdg-open' commands are very useful, but
  it's a bit unwieldy to use everywhere in docs. How about aliasing to
  the simple 'browse', so I can recommend things like:

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

  That would be crisp clean and friendly for current users.

  [Test Case]

  There is currently no simple 'browse' command.

  [Regression Potential]

  None. There are no name collisions with /usr/bin/browse in Debian or
  Ubuntu.

  [ Other Info ]

  Although the original request was to alias 'sensible-browser' it was
  decided that 'xdg-open' has the more consistent behaviour (in terms of
  selecting the correct web browser to use) and also falls back to
  'sensible-browser'.
