This bug was opened as a feature request in 2006. The first part and most important portion of the feature request was making NM aware of kill switch transitions. This was implemented a long time ago, and hence the bug was marked as Fix Released.
Upstream is aware of the desire to have disable wireless power down the card, however it has not yet been deemed important enough to implement. Re-opening this bug gets us no closer to having upstream implement the feature.
