One thing we're going to be working on upstream is a more agnostic way for VPN plugins to present their configuration UI, since there are multiple things that need this information, including command-line programs. I'm not sure yet how that will get presented, but likely in some form of UI description files that can be easily parsed by whatever UI you've got and the widgets reconstructed. We've come to the point where it's increasingly hard to keep duplicating the UI logic every time updated UI happens. This would ideally help the KDE folks too as they wouldn't have to write completely new VPN UI for each plugin.
