Other software allows you to add infiltration properties to manholes. In Western Australia, the use of Soakwells/Soakpits is an often practice and it is important to be able to account for this local infiltration within the Manhole

Thank you for the suggestion and thanks to those who voted. You can currently use the soakaway object (SWC) and configure it to act as a manhole with perforation to enable infiltration, however, I acknoweldge the importance of having an easy option for manholes to be perforated in order to enable infiltration rather than having to build polygonised SWCs.
Therefore, we will engage in consultations with a wider array of stakeholders to gauge their interest and gather additional perspectives on the proposed feature.
Should we observe a substantial level of enthusiasm and demand, we will be inclined to advance the status of this suggestion to "Under Consideration." This stage will involve a more detailed analysis, including a feasibility study, resource allocation assessment, and preliminary planning to understand how this feature could be seamlessly integrated into the software.
