Your user story is roughly what offline moodle is aiming for, except
that by the magic of using GG, step 5 'downloads' content  (and JS
code) _to Browse_. Content that Browse can navigate locally, even if
the network server is not available.

So instead of opening a dedicated 'activity', users go to Browse and
when they click on the 'Schoolserver' link Gears takes over (if the XS
is not reachable) and they can use offline moodle.

IMO that path would be a huge amount of work, and a bit of a dead end
WRT updates and such. Cant' really recommend it. It is also a bespoke
effort- nothing else supports activity bundles, so there's no
incentive for Moodle to remain compatible to it.
