When connecting to a VPN, the systray icon of my Wifi connection gets a small lock in its right bottom corner. But inside the connection list (when you click the icon), the small lock indicates a WPA2 connection. This is inconsistent and slightly confusing. How about to change the lock to a shield, like it's used for VPN connections in the connection list?

I don't have a VPN I can test with, but by code inspection, it looks like an appropriate icon is used. Can you please attach a screenshot showing the issue?
I've just tested this on KDE Neon User Edition (Plasma 5.20.3) and I can't replicate the issue. When connected my WiFi icon on the panel changes to indicate that a VPN is connected as you mentioned. However in the network popup my WiFi icon doesn't change there as the VPN is listed directly beneath it saying connected. Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved. I'm setting status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "reported" or "resolved" when you respond, thanks.

As you can see in the screenshots, WPA2 gets a lock in the menu, but not in the systray. When connected to VPN, systray gets a lock besides a shield being used inside the menu.
I see, thank you. That's helpful.
