Ok, confirmed problem is in plasma-widget rather than anywhere else. Using Blueman to control bluetooth, connecting dial-up service adds rfcomm0 correctly but widget seems to be unable to hook up the correctly configured (Vodafone UK) mobile broadband. Errors are as per Wong CS comment above (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-widget-network-manager/+bug/334122/comments/10).
Using old KNetworkManager works perfectly (although have to manually configure speed to use 3G well - will test if this causes issues when speed setting is greater than is available on network). How to get this prioritised for a fix? Raise a customer support issue with Canonical?
