This may not be what you want but there is Conkeror, an emacs-like
keyboard-driven version of firefox.  In Conkeror the
"copy-current-url" is bund to "c".  So, if I understood your code
correctly you would have to add a few lines like

  (window-send-string (current-window) "c")

to copy the URL to the x-clipboard and later
  
  (window-send-string (current-window) (kbd "C-y"))
        
to copy the clipboard to the relelevant emacs buffer.

For some time I've been considering to switch to stumpwm from
ratpoison.  The naturality of the above (at least in the eyes of an
emacs user) finally did it.  I am now determined that in a week that
I'll be back home I'll try stumpwm.  Thanks for posting this (even
though it's OT).

HTH,
Nikos
