I was struggling though to get to grips with how to use the MM/Glib APIs - are there any examples anywhere which will show me how to get started in connecting and then drilling down through the objects...?

Oh, please, don't do the mmcli path, that is extremely ugly and may
get broken at any time. The DBus API is stable, and so that is what
should be used; either via libmm-glib or with raw DBus operations.
The best example on how to use libmm-glib is mmcli itself; it provides
implementation of both async and sync operations, and it relies on
GLib's main loop logic.
