What do you think about extending org.ofono.ConnectionContext API with =

Add/RemoveProperty calls and PropertyAdded/Removed signals to allow =

platform/application specific properties of type string? Use cases =

include marking connections as preferred/default or assigning priorities =

manually edited) and who knows what else.
