I've extracted Lorn's connectivity-api draft commit and made it self-
compiling:

https://code.launchpad.net/~timo-jyrinki/+junk/connectivity-api-bearer

You can either compile it yourself on the device or get this build for
vivid/rc-proposed: https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-
service/+archive/ubuntu/landing-059/+build/8313308/+files/libqt5network5-connectivityapibearer_0.0.1
%7Eunreleased-0ubuntu1%7Evivid1%7Etest1_armhf.deb

It seems not to crash at least on device, but I don't know how to test it 
further. To test it:
1. Install the .deb
2. Remove/move the three other bearers from 
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/qt5/plugins/bearer away so that only 
libqubuntubearer.so is left
3. Reboot

There'd now be also the new upstream method of
QT_EXCLUDE_GENERIC_BEARER=1 that will be in Ubuntu's Qt 5.5 packages,
but then I do not how it would be selected if NM or Ubuntu backend is
used - if we get connectivity-api bearer working well enough, we should
be able to specify it explicitly.
