Hmm. From my experience, you are wrong. It's a usual script for my son: he arrives at home while my computer is off and start Terraria just after system went online. Steam went offline, of course, as he didn't connect ADSL.
After that some other program (I think, it's a uTorrent, but I cannot confirm it, as I never was at home when it's happens) auto-restores ADSL-connection and everything is working since then... but when I arriving at home several hours later, Steam still offline. So I don't think that it can go online by itself.
Hmm, actually, I just checked both scenarios: "put Steam in offline mode then plug on network" and "put Steam in offline mode, turn it off, start network then start Steam". Only difference is question on start "Do you want to go online or stay offline?". So no, it's not going to online by itself.
