This is not desirable. Although there might be some places to get inspired
from what the system offers while GRASS system lacks.

This is the most simple and straightforward way how to implement this.
Button can just open a web browser. There is a standard way in wxPython to
do this.

Alternative is to somehow use their URLs (or API if there is some) to do
some search or show additional information about the projection. This needs
a more detailed analysis of the problem. The button mentioned before would
be a good start. Even with a simple button, the opened URL could also
include something like currently searched URL.
