Not a bad suggestion, put a dropdown box like the HLDS GUI to select internet/lan in the game tab of the new game menu option.

So online is the new lan for people nowadays, any I've seen countless forum posts about people trying to just create a listen server to play with their friends, but it gets created on lan by default, and you have to explain them to change sv_lan every time. I think an option to start it as an online game would be a nice addition to the create server dialog in these games.
