If you talk about the network editor for the
networkmanagement-plasma/networkmanager, you can restrict the
networkmanager directly

Either with polkit, this is done like it is described in
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2141331
or with networkmanager itself.

For this, You would have to define a network-connection and with "nmcli
general permissions" you can see the current configuration and restrict
modification to a connection (only stop/start/restart it for example).
This is than written down in
/etc/networkmanager/system-connection/connectionname where users and
groups are specified which are allowed to edit/start/stop connections :)
