Well, during the DDOS attack at steampowered I tried this LAN version.
The trick they do is simple:
If you used the "Exit" menu (and not the "Exit and Logout" menu) the steam auth data is kept on your disk.
The next time you start steam it tries to connect to the auth server. If it cannot reach it you'll presented a screen where you can select if you want to play on LAN or exit steam...
I also noticed the running steam process after "Exit" but it disappeared after some time...
