So it has been made amply clear that Collections are no longer available in offline mode, with no alternative, even if you don’t say that clearly, there is no alternative in sight except for loading all of the data on your servers that are for sure extremely safe and well guarded but still outside of one’s control.
Fortunately my problems have nothing to do with security for now but they will get there eventually.
In my humble opinion you should address this matter in some way at least release the latest version that still includes scratchpad in offline mode and make that an option that will stay there for the foreseeable future clearly stating that you will no longer do maintenance on that code, but at least it will solve the sudden lack of offline capabilities, even better offer the same thing for a price this time obviously with maintenance and updates, and I’ll probably line up for the purchase.
