RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1540573

Details

It is part of the geckoview package, and the relevant Gecko APIs already query the GeckoNetworkManager through GeckoAppShell, but we never actually start the network manager in GeckoView to make it actually operational - at the moment only Fennec itself does that when starting up in GeckoApplication.

James says the GeckoView-powered app can monitor offline status themselves (possibly with a network monitor A-C component). The app could then tell GeckoView to go offline (bug 1533271) instead of the GeckoNetworkManager telling GeckoView or the app we went offline.

Would that cover the Gecko Network Status API (bug 677166), which is more than just offline mode, too?

Ugh, I totally forgot about that. I guess maybe we do need to do that bit ourselves. We should still have some API to allow the app to take us offline, though. I'm elevating the priority of this a bit since it impacts web compat due to the DOM API being broken.
