I don't think there is a way. I don't know of it anyhow.
On some systems you could get away with using the new dbus code to
contact NetworkManager and see if there is a connection. I'm not sure
how to do this :-). And, while this would work great for me, it
definitely wouldn't work for most users, I think.
