The problem is that we are getting exactly opposite requirement: use DVD as much as possible, do not download from the online repos if not absolutely needed. So, it seems this needs to be user-configurable somehow :( BTW, libzypp does not have support for repo priority, so this is kind of next step after we can make it deterministic where the package is downloaded from.
