Title:
  Poor error message when offline

Status in Chromium Browser:
  Unknown
Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: chromium-browser

  chromium-browser 5.0.307.9~r39052-0ubuntu1 on Lucid:

  chromium-browser does not do a good job detecting when the user is
  online/offline. If you don't have a net connection it just displays an
  error page stating

  "This webpage is not available.

  The webpage at http://…blah…; might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently 
  to a new web address.". 

  Firefox handles this situation much better and displays an "offline"
  mode page. Would be nice if chromium had similar functionality.
