We have the OfflineTitleFormat string (and I think we used to have code, but it was removed in a cleanup) for updating window titles with "[Working Offline]" when the user is in offline mode. This would be a nice, more visible way to help indicate that Camino is in offline mode, and we should think about hooking it up again now that offline mode is useful.
The other thing we might think about doing here, in addition to the title changes (but possibly before them, coding-wise) is to offer Growl users Growl alerts for online/offline.
Depends on: 547485
This is a very good suggestion which is not only good for Mac and Camino, but all products (web browser and mail client). So I've filed the same request for other products: bug 574653, bug 574655 and bug 574666.
(In reply to comment #0) > We have the OfflineTitleFormat string (and I think we used to have code, but > it was removed in a cleanup) for updating window titles with "[Working > Offline]" when the user is in offline mode. Stuart ripped (most of) the old code out in bug 368934; the string and the notification in MainController stayed (but I removed the notification in bug 156552). FWIW, and contra Stuart's argument in that bug, I don't think we need to change the title of every tab when we go offline; I really think we should only modify the title of the browser window. That may prove difficult in practice, however.
