      Two jnlp fields control how and if an application can be run.
      <offline-allowed> controls is an application can be run in "offline" mode
      "href" attribute of <jnlp> has someecontrol of if application can be run in "online" mode.
      1.) If an application has neither offline-allowed, or jnlp href, it cannot create shortcuts or be run from the cache viewer. This is the same in 5.0 and 6.0.
      2.) If an application has both, it can be run both online and offline from shortcuts or from the cache viewer. This is the same in 5.0 and 6.0
      3.) if application has both an href but not offline-allowed, it can be run only in "online" mode from either the shortcut or the cache viewer.
      4.) But if application has offline-allowed, but no "href" it can still be run both online or offline from a shortcut, or from the cache viewer in 5.0, but in the cache viewer in 6.0 it is only allowed to be run offline.

      This should be changed back to 5.0 behavior allowing running both online or offline.
