I really need one too.  I had not seen hv3 before, and it seems that
there are plans to support javascript!  But that may take time.  And I
guess hv3 is too big for your machine too?

For users who can run a large, slow browser and occasionally need
javascript support, it would be great to have a Links menu item that
opens the current page in a user-specified browser. Then you can surf
fast until you need javascript.  As a work-around, you can press
"Alt+S C" to select the current URL, but it is slow to paste the URL
into the new browser using the mouse.
