Reading on the previous echanges tehre was a mention of NM not developing/
maintaining iwd backend but I see that they have recent commits (Nov 2020)

It would be great if we could reconsider this discussion, especially if the
iwd backend in NM is being debeloped.

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

You can use iwd with NM.
The package is still built with support for it
