If you talk about the network editor for the networkmanagement-plasma/networkmanager, you can restrict the networkmanager directly Either with polkit, this is done like it is described in https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2141331 or with networkmanager itself. For this, You would have to define a network-connection and with "nmcli general permissions" you can see the current configuration and restrict modification to a connection (only stop/start/restart it for example). This is than written down in /etc/networkmanager/system-connection/connectionname where users and groups are specified which are allowed to edit/start/stop connections :)
