Well, they managed to get FF3 to put itself into offline mode when it can't
find a network connection, so I wonder why they didn't do this? On the other
hand, this 'feature' is incredibly annoying as it uses NetworkManager to do
the detection, what happens if you're using a dial up connection or
something else not managed by nm?
