Stage 1: Definition

1. Feature overview

This is actually a collection of bugs that we need to fix in order to effectively support a class of offline applications.

2. Users & use cases

We want to enable a developer to write an application that can:

1. Be used on airplanes. That is, the entire application is cached and can be used.

2. To be able to store and process large amounts of data. This includes both data that's the size of smallish jason blobs (measured in kilobytes) but also large images or even videos (megabytes.)

3. To give users decent feedback about progress and important state changes. This means guidance on app changes (when it's updated), excellent responsiveness and startup time.

4. To be able to use the network when required, with decent fallback.

Must-have bugs:
