Thanks.  Alan, could you please review the NS specific parts?

The last two entries are not specific to macOS, are they?  If so, they
should be in the general sections of NEWS.

The MS-Windows and non-GTK builds of Emacs on X still don't support
xwidgets, so I think this entry should not be deleted in its entirety,
it should still say that some configurations don't support xwidgets.

The second sentence should be reworded:

  Get the URL of current session, then browse that URL in another
  window after splitting the selected window horizontally.

Same here (but use "vertically" instead of "horizontally").

It is better to have this defvar unconditionally, and tell in the doc
string that it only has effect on macOS.

Why replace printf by message?

Space before the opening parenthesis is missing.

These commands should say in their doc strings that interactively N is
the prefix numeric argument.

The macOS-specific part of this should be in the non-free OS part of
NEWS.

The last sentence is unclear: what will be the directory where the URL
will be saved, and what will be the name of the saved file in that
directory?
