Two notes:
1) PubSub Value Router (e.g. IPNS over PubSub) will handle offline record support (already in master, waiting on the next release) 2) The proposed DHT changes that have peers remove themselves from the network if they think they're undialable will break offline IPNS over DHT. Dealing with an offline DHT that is separate from a public network is a separate issue.
In my eyes 2 is the libp2p request/discussion. Either we want non-dialable nodes to be able to use their own DHT, or we have to tell people that they should utilize other protocols (e.g. MDNS + PubSub) when they're concerned about offline use.
Libp2p should have better offline/disconnected-network record support:
