Mockup of suggested changes
In the days of KDE4, it was possible to see how much data you had transferred
through a connection, by looking at that connection in the network applet
present in the system tray. This ability was never brought back in Plasma 5. I
would like to suggest a re-implementation of the capability.
This is primarily important for users on mobile internet connections, which
offer plans where the connection is slowed down by the provider after reaching
a monthly quota (eg: 2GB per month). This makes it much easier to keep track of
how much data you've used since last enabling that connection.
See the attached image for my suggestion: The left side shows the details
section of a connection in the network applet, while on the right side I made
changes to illustrate how what I'm proposing would look like.
