there was a similar discussion for kontact in kde3 over that (bug 69281), The consensus is that it is a bad idea, and that each program should handle it seperately.
However, it would be nice if kontact could check the network status regularly and if there is no network connection, just suspends all networkjobs of all its parts globally, so there are no annoying searching bars and warnings that they can not connect to the network from each application, but just 1 warnining that one is disconnected from the net. Including a global manual switch would also be nice, to make it quicker to suspend all jobs and does not need to go to each seperate application.
