I use this AppleScript to switch the location and send a Growl notification:

set theLocation to "Automatic"
-- use this variable so to easily duplicate the script for other locations

tell application "Finder"
	do shell script "scselect " & theLocation
end tell

-- this is about it for the location switch
-- the rest is for the Growl notification

tell application "GrowlHelperApp"
	set the allNotificationsList to ¬
		{"Switch Network Location"}
	set the enabledNotificationsList to allNotificationsList
	register as application ¬
		"Butler" all notifications allNotificationsList ¬
		default notifications enabledNotificationsList ¬
		icon of application "Butler.app"
	
	notify with name ¬
		"Switch Network Location" title ¬
		"Network Location" description ¬
		"Switched to " & theLocation application name "Butler"
	
end tell

Then you can create a custom item in either Butler (highly recommended over QS) or another launcher. You may need to adjust the script for other launchers.
