Well, the existing coil code can edit "offline" as well as "online" configurations; it just takes an Application object and mutates it. Adding some buttons to the interface to save / load the app to a particular file should be trivial.
The coil command-line app (bin/coil in CVS) works in "offline" mode. I do not want buttons for saving and loading - specifying the file on the command line is more secure, and lets me e.g. setup a coil on a website so I can give people URLs for demo purposes. And I see no reason why coil should be continiusly running if it's not configuring the same Application.
