BZ 2379 is close to this.  It deals with turning off the RevOnline.

For my money, what it should do is present a dialog with two buttons 
(perhaps nice large pictures, like RevOnline):  "Open a Stack from Online" 
and "Open a Stack on Your Computer"  The first would bring up the RevOnline 
viewer, the second, a standard open file dialog.
