With the introduction of the 1.0.7.16 update, we're able to add shortcuts to the lockscreen.
But we're only able to add shortcuts to apps on the lockscreen.

I want to add an 'action' to the lockscreen.

The action is Called "Connect to Internet".
This menu already exist: Settings > WLAN > Pulley menu > Connect to Internet
(As you can see, it's a pain the *ss to go to that menu everytime...)

This would bring up a screen like we're used to on Fremantle and Harmattan:



How can we achieve this?

EDIT:
You can download this at Openrepos now.

if this screen can be called using a command i suppose this will be easier (:

Did a quick hack out or boredom for this. First as this is a hack, you would need developer access to the device.

Then run devel-su to continue as root. Then use vi/whatever editor you fancy to create a file named settings-wifi-connect.desktop in /usr/share/applications with the following config

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Settings
X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=settings-ap-name
X-MeeGo-Translation-Catalog=settings
Icon=icon-launcher-settings
Exec=invoker --single-instance --type=silica-qt5 /usr/bin/jolla-settings
Comment=Jolla Settings
X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.20
Then you can enable this shortcut in the settings app (:

EDIT: actual hack

EDIT2: cross posted to my blog

The connection dialog is simply appearing when trying to make a network connection (at least with Qt) while there is no network connectivity. You could make a simple window-less Qt program that tries to load from some URL, and the dialog should popup.
Then add a .desktop file for it and you should be able to put it into the shortcuts menu.

I havent tried out your hack yet, but I talked to the guys at the IRC, and we figured it out that this one should work as well:
Code:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Type=Application
    X-Nemo-Application-Type=no-invoker
    Name=Connect to internet
    Icon=internetconnection
    Exec=dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.jolla.lipstick.ConnectionSelector / com.jolla.lipstick.ConnectionSelectorIf.openConnection string:wlan
I've created an icon for it
