You certainly shouldn't need to use the command line. If you're using
NetworkManager, everything should work using the standard UI for
connecting VPNs.

If you're not using NetworkManager, then you can still abuse its
authentication dialog for OpenConnect, which is a separate program. You
just have to feed it the right data on stdin for the network you want it
to connect to, and parse its output. You could knock up a script which
does that, and run it from an icon on the users' desktops.
