Use case:
I have a VPN connection to my office network and want to connect to this VPN automatically. But when I use my office wifi or ethernet connection, I don't want to use this VPN connection.

It will be great to have some kind of network exception list (for every VPN connection) to prevent VPN connection when you are using a connection from this exception list.

Really a dupe of 560471; I think what we'd rather do is be able to tie a VPN connection to one or more other connections so that the VPN gets automatically activated when those connections come up.  That should do exactly what you want here.
