- -0.  It is only a "win once" thing, since figuring out (and typing) the
correct URL is likely to be machine specific.  E.g., if I start Zope in
an SSH seesion, where it runs behind Apache, there is no way the URL
printed on standard output will be accessible from the browser on my
local desktop.

For Zope running on my local machine, there is no real win after the
first time, as my browser history will already have the URL.
