If you "deploy" to a server that's not running, then the module
will be started next time the server starts. If you "distribute" to a
server that's not running, then the module will not be started next time
the server starts.
The alternative is to have two tools for online/offline mode (you
missed the boat if you intend to fight for that), or one tool where only
half the options work any any given time (ick).
