I know this was floating around elsewhere, but here is a good article on how to get the LED indicator functioning. At this moment it looks like only the paid version of Light Flow works. $2.49
I've got it running on mine now.

I have disabled the ambient display, but not for battery reasons. I put the phone in my pocket, so I don't want it to wake up and I accidentally launch something.
From what I read, the ambient display setting just turns on the screen, not the back light. So not much power is being used. I had it running on my desk and noticed it turning on a lot, for no reason, there were not notification.

If you run Light Flow, I'd suggest turning off the toast pop up from SuperSu. I had it popping up like every 30 seconds, very annoying.

Actually, more correctly, it has an LED indicator, but its utility disabled in the OS for the Nexus 6.

Lightflow update as of two days ago enables notification LED blinking. However, it constantly writes to the file system to edit a file and then read it to do the blinking. Validus, CM12 and Liquid Smooth ROMs already have this baked in. I think Chroma has it as well.
Chroma has the LED enabled but it doesn't blink.

I don't have that on Marshmallow 6.0.1 on the Nexus 6.. Does Lightflow need to be installed?
