So I'm sitting here at work trying to fire up Steam on my laptop (no active
net connection). It comes up (expectedly) with a dialog prompting me to
start in offline mode, and when I click it, I get an error message saying
'Steam cannot connect to the network' and that 'This operation cannot be
completed in offline mode'.

Is there ANY chance we can ***maybe*** get some at least better error
messages for Offline Mode, or even some better support? Its really bloody
frustrating trying to do anything without a net connection (or behind a
firewall) with this kind of crappy offline mode support. I know I'm not the
only person who is continually pissed off about this kind of support. Even
decoupling the SDK from Steam could be a nice start. Is there anything that
can actually be done to make our lives the slightest bit easier?

I mean, how hard is it to actually code a decent offline mode...
