OK, so offline mode sucks right now on some machines, especially when 
used with logon delay.

I feel it needs a small redesign.

Some machines seem to enable network much later (wireless, but also some 
wired ones) - even if technically the network is started alreay. There 
WPKG will almost never work (network is technically started, but it 
really isn't, we can't connect -> stop everything).


So, what should we do in that case? We could try to connect several 
times for several seconds, but what to do with logon delay then? Block 
the user, often unnecessarily? Don't block any more, but it can happen 
that we eventually connect and are able to install software?
