I might have to give some extra insights here. The ConnMan API is following the flow how humans should interact with the system. The list of services is something you can present 1:1 to the user. It will give you all information. Users can connect/disconnect to a service. If we need extra information, ConnMan will ask the user for exactly the information it needs. So all the request from the agent are 1:1 question that a user should answer. If ConnMan would know the answer or could figure it out by ourselves, we would do that. Gathering all information up-front is a rather limited UI design that I would propose to anybody anymore. Just select the service you want and step away until we ask you for more information. Trying to outsmart ConnMan is most likely going to fail.
