Actually it should not. When clicking a link in rng, rng just calls
'xdg-open someurl'. This program usually returns as soon as the browser
shows the URL. In your case it seems to wait until the browser is closed
again.

Unfortunately I can't reproduce your bug under gnome either, so I need
some more infos Could you please start

  xdg-open http://debian.org

in a console and check if xdg-open returns when the browser opened?


Cheers,

Bastian
