Would like to also have restart UI, but that's rather harder to do,
seems it'd need to start another copy of the webapp, and redirect the
browser to its new url, but running two assistants in the same repo at
the same time isn't good.
This should work on linux (xdg-open) and OSX (open). If the program
is not in $PATH, it falls back to opening a browser window/tab with file:///
The only tricky bit is the javascript code, that handles clicking on the
link. This is to avoid unnecessary page refreshes. Until I added the
return false at the end, the <a>'s normal click event also fired, so two
file browsers opened. I have not checked portability extensively.
Depending on how the webapp was started up and whether the user clicked on
any links in it, window.close() may be disallowed by browser security
policy. Also if that fails, display a modal dialog that nicely blackens out
the webapp.
TODO: avoid Escape closing it. Bootstrap's docs are unclear about how to do
that.
