This appears to have been removed in Debian[1]. The commit message says

  Many of those script are not meant to be run within a NetworkManager
  context. Packages that would benefit from reacting on such network state
  changes should install a native NetworkManager-dispatcher script.
  The interface is documented in more detail in the
  NetworkManager-dispatcher(8) man page.

I can't see that ifupdown has started to ship such a native
NetworkManager-dispatcher script.

We can certainly see if reverting this commit causes any problems.
