Description Michael Catanzaro 2014-09-13 02:50:37 UTC 
Turn off your Internet connection and then visit one of Totem's channels, e.g. Blip.tv.  The page is completely blank, with no indication of what is wrong. There should be a label that says an Internet connection is required.

I just discovered that the updates page in gnome-software is a great example of how to handle this.

I'd use the same layout as described in the empty states mockups for this:
