Please correct me if I am wrong.

I didn’t find anything on fd.o, but I think NetworkManager is commonly
used under KDE and GNOME, so it’s DBus interface could be used. But NM
is not always present, e.g., some users replace it with wicd, or use
old-school config file network configuration. But maybe I missed
something.

Yeah, there isn't a common API at the moment, I believe. NetworkManager, Moblin Connman and Maemo ConIC all have different APIs. What we want is fairly simple though and supporting several API shouldn't be that hard.

That said, it would make a lot of sense if everyone supported the same API for the simple stuff (iow "am I connected?")
