This was easy enough to test, the device is still listed with state
unavailable.

How does it change with a removable wireless adapter like a USB or

I don't have hardware to test this at the moment, but I would expect the
device to be listed when the adapter is plugged and disappear when it's
unplugged.

In general, I looked into the GNOME control center code (for the panel you
see when clicking Wi-Fi Settings). The "Wi-Fi" item is added and removed
from the list on the left whenever a device is added or removed on the
NetworkManager API. So I think we are safe going with that logic too.
