Thanks, but that means once Opera starts with network connected, it won't detect whether network is offline for offline web applications. Doesn't it somehow defeat the purpose of "fallback" resource?

At least in Opera, it will still respect the browser's normal cache
header. So the network section header will just bypass the application
cache, and will load normally like any other web page, which means
respecting (i.e, not bypassing) the normal cache.
