CLI requires internet

I'm doing a bit of networking and it's really a pain that the `op` CLI requires a proper internet connection to work, as I don't always have a connection.

Any ways around that?

Example for `op read`:

```
[ERROR] 0000/00/00 00:00:00 could not read secret 'op://my-vault/thing/password': error initializing client: RequestDelegatedSession: cannot setup session. Please check the logs of the 1Password app.
```

Optimally it would just work like how the app does.
I can see the password in the app with no connection. I should be able to read it through the CLI as well.

I just ran into this `feature`. I too need to be able to use `op` in an offline mode regularly.

Just came across this as well, I'm tethering on a train and trying to work on something locally with the CLI. It'd be great to at least fallback to the local data if a connection isn't present.
