My experience for your question: there is NO point to disable backgraound connections at all ... I have practically all features enabled with dual mobile network (2G/3G) ... internet 3G/WLAN active (online all the time) ... online in fb (I use it text messaging with my girl, a good substitute for SMS and Whatsapp) ... and I can stay 10 mA-level on idle state ... your idle power consumption will be clearly higher if you are using Skype and/or Gtalk (online) ...
