Theoretically this could cause trouble when used with a computer
having no connection to the Internet, as an app could think it can
connect, try to do it, fail and terminate or display annoying messages.

It's not really a strong objection, as most decent computers are 
connected to the Internet these days, but maybe a config option could
be better ? Just a thought.
