The EBackend base class already has an "online" boolean property. Backend modules just have to honor it. For 3.4 we can just bind it to GNetworkMonitor:network-available if linking to GLib >= 2.31. For 3.6 I'd like to have each EBackend manage its own "online" state by calling g_network_monitor_can_reach() in response to "network-changed" signals from GNetworkMonitor. Then we get VPN awareness for free! In either case it's all handled in the base class.
