ok so it looks like it is QNAM backend order that invokes the IAP dialog. I'll dig more deeper into this.

Why this is a bug in my view in Symbian?

When you add network connection you need to add NetworkServices capability to your application. This capablity is self-signable but it will create a dialog prompting the user "do you allow this application to access network?" at the time of installation.

Second thing is that query will cause data to be moved, which costs money. how much depends on your data plan.

3rd thing is what this bug describes. you need to do network management on application that wouldn't need it.

Bearer management workaround would be possible but it doesn't support user selected IAP (new addition to API needed?) meaning we are left with hardcoding the IAP which is acceptable only if the test environment is always the same.
