Describe the project you are working on

not me, but would be a great QoL improvement for beginners using Godot

Describe the problem or limitation you are having in your project

not me, but i noticed several beginners using godot 4.4 beta for the first time, and confused on how they can't download export template. The UI said that they're offline, despite having internet connection. They don't know that now godot is offline by default and online mode needs to be enabled either on Project Manager's settings or Editor setttings inside godot's editor. Many old tutorial (about exporting) won't include this step of course, since this is new.

Describe the feature / enhancement and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation

Include either a button or a message that the online mode is currently not active, and needs to be activated so that user could download the export template. The button will simply switch on the online mode. Easy to do and understand for beginners new to godot without additional guide.

There are several instance in Godot currently that could be imitated for this solution (below).

Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, and/or diagrams

Asset library example:

Android export template example (but replace 'fix import' with 'go online'):

If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

It's for beginners, they need it built in🙏

Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?

It's core.
