This reminded me of something I've been wondering about for a while:
What is the reason why NM asks me to select country, provider, APN 
and
so on when connecting to mobile broadband for the first time? It 
seems
kind of user-unfriendly - MM/NM knows my operator's MCC/MNC (can be
seen in "mmcli -m 0 -i 0"), which can be used to immediately locate 
the
correct <provider> block in serviceproviders.xml. Assuming there's 
only
one data APN present in that <provider> block, it could simply be 
used
by default without asking anything.

Completely agree there :)
