Title:
  [lubuntu] nm-connection-editor lacks option for metered connections

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi,

  unfortunately, snapd insists to refresh snaps, thus possibly causing
  several GB of traffic per day, blocking the network and ruining the
  owner if the connection is slow and/or metered. There is no option to
  turn this permanently off, only methods to schedule, delay, or to hold
  refreshing if a metered connection is detected.

  It is, therefore, important to be able to tell Network Manager, that a
  connection is metered in order to keep snapd from ruining the user.

  While I've seen screenshots showing this option in the mainstream
  ubuntu's desktop settings, I do not see such an option in nm-
  connection-editor, which is used e.g. by Lubuntu.

  regards
