Gears support would be wonderful.
Should we give it a try in 5.9.2?

Gears should work. The only part that doesn't in OmniWeb currently is launching directly into an offline environment which should be addable (And I'll look into).

seems to only work if I do things from an admin account. my normal account isn't admin, gears things don't work (fail to synchronize, etc.)
not useful if I can't do it from a non-admin account.
