Is this something which could be supported by now?

gnome-control-center -> power seems to offer a setting to manage wi-fi power saving but in the end this is just a wi-fi on/off switch which immediately brings the device down/up (bug 1751954).

Looking through the details of an existing NM wireless configuration profile there are no related (power saving) features exposed on the GUI. "nmcli connection show $UUID" lists a
   802-11-wireless.powersave (default: 0)
setting.

Is this what brings the interface down after some ~ 10 minutes of user input inactivity / ~ 5 minutes of blank screen? If so, could this be exposed on the GUI?
