Jeremy, the localhost problem is a valid issue and is a different bug,
please file it.

Besides from that we want to use a service to determine online/offline
state; this would allow us to improve user experience in many ways; the
fact that network manager is not able to manage all types of connections
is unfortunate, but isn't a problem for the majority of our users. For
now if you are struck by this, disable the feature using about:config.

Also, be assured that we are unhappy about the current situation and are
working on real solutions to the problem; one idea is to move
online/offline detection to a dedicated and connection-manager-
independent service that can deal with all type of connections. So stay
tuned. Thanks for your patience.
