We can now in the case of receiving a sleep signal via dbus. If we shut down a VPN there also some kind of link going down. For instance at university you have touse VPN or you can only connect to an informational web server. What would help is a general awareness of the system about connections. For example Gaim could use that to logout properly from the IM networks you are connected to, some kind of dyndns service could set a special IP address that makes you know that the machine is down.
