Okay, so there's a setting called "type" too, that I presume is distinct
from the "connection" setting's "type" attribute. i.e. the minimum
required:
{'connection': {...},
'type': {...},
...}
Where do I find information on this "type" setting? Doing a search for
"type setting" on
https://developer.gnome.org/NetworkManager/0.9/ref-settings.html shows
no matches.

Ahh so a minimal one might give a 'connection' object, whose 'interface'
attribute references one of the physical network ports, and it'll just
configure the network via DHCP.
