Here is the link for those who wish to have it as a reference or perhaps would like to contribute to further improving it:
https://wiki.debian.org/resolv.conf I also made a comment to https://bugs.debian.org/860928 regarding the temporary files that dhclient leaves cluttering /etc if the mv to /etc/resolv.conf fails (e.g., because it is immutable). I also filed https://bugs.debian.org/879949 as a wishlist bug to have dhclient-script include a header comment in /etc/resolv.conf. Thanks again to everyone who participated in the thread.
