Hey, currently the UI doesn't support those kinds of networks so it shows up as wired. Editing an existing one in any way ruins it. You can see it for yourself: `nmcli connection add connection.type wifi-p2p ifname p2p-dev-wlp1s0 wifi-p2p.peer <REMOTE DEVICE MAC> autoconnect no`.

Ad-hoc seems to work but is described as "special" type. ...that's not very descriptive.
