Are you going to nominate that as a blocker?  :-D

See bug 738880 :)

Anyway, any serious proposals for the eggs, that could even pass? :)

Yes, it's important to be fun.

For example, Chrome's T-rex dinausor game when disconnected is highly popular and almost part of the pop culture for millenials: https://www.blog.google/products/chrome/chrome-dino/

What about adding an even more fun game when Firefox has no connection?

In the Mozilla community, we already have the jumping fox game: https://github.com/mozilla/about-home-jumping-fox-game
