Besides the gateway information, it would also be nice to see other
information about my currently connected network, like information about
IP address, DNS servers, netmask, etc.

Created attachment 70281
Display Gateway, Netmask, DNS details in inteface details tab

Here's a patch implementing the requested feature, showing default gateway, broadcast address, subnet mask and primary/secondary/ternary DNS details.
I dislike this implementation for the reason that the height of Plasma NM applet is now way too much (visit the interface details tab, and click on 'Back' button to come back and observe the height increase). 
Lamarque, I see that you have planned to add GSM details in another tab. Should we go that way - what do yo suggest?

I prefer to create a dialog to select which details to show like the one
that existed for knetworkmanager. I started to implement such a dialog
but has never finished it.

implements the details editor and allows you to select to show the
default gateway. Just a warning that at least NetworkManager 0.9.2.0 and
0.9.4.0 do not report the default gateway IPv4 address if the interface
is using static configuration. I have tested it using qdbusviewer so
this is an upstream bug.
