I sort of surmised that already...


So, we are still years away from seeing a working nvidia driver,
by the look of it...
I guess what I am confused about, is there someone actively working on
the Nvidia requests, or does a capable individual need to take the
lead on this project?

 And that's exactly what I'd very much like to know...

you are free to sponsor these items if they are really important to you,
without that, do notice that people do this in their own free time, which
could either take some time before it's there, or might not be interesting
enough to work on currently (because of other things at work, private life
other code etc).

It's not a matter of a capable individual taking the lead, it's a matter
of having someone capable enough working on this for some time, which can
be achieved by sponsoring that capable person for example.

Maybe the FreeBSD project could provide an official site for bounties?
Some things might have more interest among users than developers,
and an easy way to create and donate to bounties for everyone to see may
make it less of a barrier for people to put their money where their mouth is.

Ubuntu seem to have something going, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bounties
