--- Comment #2 from Radek Podgorny <radek at podgorny.cz> ---
yes, setting DNS= is what i've been using so far to work-around it but it
simply feels wrong.

when my network is configured correctly (dhcp sending resolvers), i see no
reason to add arbitrary (why google's 8.8.8.8?) servers to resolv.conf. also,
when something breaks, i think it would be better to get to notice as soon as
possible instead of having seemingly weird behaviour (1).

as for the "fallback", the resolv.conf also supports the 'rotate' option (see
man resolv.conf) which changes the behaviour to be round-robin. i can't even
imagine how stressful debugging broken resolver would be in such case.

i totally understand having sane defaults for non-auto-configured systems
(virtual machines, ...) but let's not interfere with centrally driven network
configuration (dhcp).

(1): as an example: windows machines would stop working but linux one won't. or
even better, some linux machines will fail because they're not systemd-based.
also, ever more delicate things may start to happen (dnssec, site-local
resolution, ...).
