Hi Angus
If you need code to to that, check out my little vala-settings (to be
renamed in the near future to shr-config or something like this). It's
an elementary GUI written in vala, so no python overhead, and it can be
used to turn on/off GSM/wifi/BT. GPS is on my list.
Personally, I use it to pop up a profile selection screen when pressing AUX.

The license is GPL2+ and the code is here:
http://github.com/spaetz/vala-settings/tree/master

(as I said, due to popular request, I will rename it soon, so that
location might change a bit). a .bb recipe for it is in the shr overlay.
