This might be an inspiration to some of us:

For those that don't have enough time I copy  here the "GMail" example:

Imagine a version of GMail with a "Work Offline" button on the
left-hand side of the screen. When pressed, GMail downloads 100 of
your most recent emails into Dojo Offline, including pieces of it's
user-interface. A user can now close their browser and leave the
network, stepping on an airplane for example. Once in the air, the
user can then simply open their laptop and browser and type in
mail.google.com. The GMail UI magically appears, along with their 100
most recent emails. A user can read these mails, compose new ones, or
reply to existing ones. A flight attendant announces that the plane
will land soon; the user closes their browser and laptop. Later, when
they are back on the network, they can click the "Work Online" button,
which will send all of their locally written emails to the GMail
server.
