Whenever we turn something on or off using a keyboard shortcut we should show an OSD.

Needs support in plasma-nm, obviously
Jens promised to look into the icons
Anybody have a shorter name for "Mobile Broadband"?

Makes sense!
Sorry I don't know any shorter term for "mobile broadband". There are all sorts of acryonyms for individual mobile broadband technology, but since we don't know which one we're dealing with (or do we?), I fear we're stuck with that clunky term...

Couldn't this be added to powerdevil? In my recent review for powerdevil I added options to turn off/on wifi/bt/wwan over DBus. I can also add support for this to plasma-nm of course.

We could do that, the OSD is quite indifferent on who calls it. I'm just not sure whether having the global shortcuts for toggling WiFi et al in PowerDevil rather than plasma-nm which usually manages all networking and has the respective check boxes in it.
+1 on it,
tough kinda shows the limits of the kind of dbus interface it was chosen for doing osds, wouldn't know an alternative that looks less silly tough
