I'm using NM with iwd too and I'd like to give a +1 to this feature request.

The previous mail is now almost a year old and it's almost 3 years since the 
bug has been filed. Since then a lot has changed.

- 22 commits in 2021 in src/core/devices/wifi/nm-device-iwd.c in the upstream 
repo, so it doesn't look abandoned to me
- popularity has risen to 408/347 and doesn't include me (and likely others 
who haven't enabled/installed popularity-contest)
- several new releases of iwd
- Bullseye has been released and there's still plenty of time to fix possible 
issues *if* they occur, before Bookworm gets released, so now is an ideal time 
to introduce this feature

Cheers,
  Diederik
