Offline data — Should I develop an app in Adobe Air because of a user requirement to have some offline data?

Question
I have a client that insists a part of their application will allow for some form entry offline, with a sync of data when the user is back online.
I tried talking them out of it, thinking of some apps I've used in the past (MS CRM comes to mind).
However, I see that Air will write to SQLlite, and I tend to believe that it could be an acceptable solution. They will not have very many users, only about 10, and this would otherwise be proposed as a browser based web app.
Is my proposed solution a good choice, or are there better ways of providing for offline data in web apps (not HTML5 -- need SQL)?
Solution
If application should work (partly) offline, how you can do it without AIR? This is a good choice, if installation of runtime and app itself is acceptable.
