KDE Network Manager support
Currently there's no integration into KDE's Qt variation of the Network Manager preferences. It would be a nice future feature to have that.
I'm going to test out and see if I can simply just pass NM a network profile for an SSH VPN connection and try it out.
@rubin110 Thanks for opening this. However this will probably be another project, out of the scope of this project. As you could notice with the rest of the nm plugins, the KDE UI is a completely different project. I'll leave it open, maybe some KDE enthusiast will pass by and pick it up :)
Just for the record (I know this issue is very old), but KDE on ArchLinux offers a corresponding integration, while opensuse tumbleweed/factory does not (by default?). I guess when someone wants to have it in their distro, its worth having a look a the ArchLinux part.
@whitequark Please let me know what I can do (if at all) to help fix that issue.
As a sidenote - I'm intrigued to find out how the kde/plasma UI is generated. Seems like all GTK plugins of NM eventually get also a KDE one...

Nothing, I think. It's all on the KDE folks.

It isn't generated, people manually rewrite plugins against the interface exported by NM for GTK.
