Why is this 'feature' even there in the first place? The user should never have to explicitly switch between online/offline modes. The browser can either resolve and load a site or it can't, and when it can't /then/ show a warning regarding it. Forcing the user to manually re-enable the ability to browse every time their connection goes up or down is just idiotic. I'm guessing this entire concept is just legacy nonsense and has no actual logical /practical/ rationale associated with it any longer.
