Re: [PATCH 1/3] Mobile broadband provider info plugin

To my understanding, with mobile-broadband-provider-info the best we can do is provision the internet context only.

This is there to handle MVNOs. Basically you might have a provider (A) that owns the network and a provider (B) that buys access to A's network. Both can administer different service plans (and have different settings for APNs, etc). In theory the MNC of provider B should be different from that of A, however some countries / networks are weird and have re-used provider's A MCC/MNC for subscribers of provider B. This is where the SPN comes in, since the MVNO is interested in displaying their name to the customer, the SPN is nearly always provided on the SIM. In the case of the same MCC/MNC, the SPN can thus be used to distinguish between provider A's settings and provider B's settings.
