Firefox (in Ubuntu) automagically switch to offline mode when NetworkManager does not have a working (or managed) connection. while this is useful, its not very intuitive the "try again" alone... i have presed it lots of times before enabling online mode...

My feature request would be a "change to online mode" button along with the retry button in the "off line mode" screen

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to offline mode

Actual Results:  
i have to go to file -> work offline

Expected Results:  
click on a button on the same screen as the dialog which tells me that im offline and offers me a retry button
