I thought about this as well. One option was to leave the Name property out for these networks and force the UI to look at the Type property. In the end we can not have a total unaware UI that has no idea what the different network types are. So yes, you need to look at the Type and if it is ethernet then you should replace the name with something that can be translated. To some degree cable connections are just special. Even inside ConnMan they have some special handling. It does auto-connect when you plug in a cable, they only show up when plugged in etc. So far only cable connections are special and I think this is an acceptable exception to the general rule.
