Comments: auto-offline

Is there an indication in the browser window that a page was loaded from the cache (e.g. to inform me that I'm looking at a stale Slashdot homepage)?

Nope, but I think there should be. You'd have to open up the File menu to see that you are working offline in order to guess that the content in the page is probably stale :-(

File a bug? It should probably block the FF 2 release.

This is great! Now that I have a laptop which isn’t always online, this is really a feature that I was looking for :).

Thunderbird also needs this in its IMAP support.
