Public bug reported: Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64 I don't know if this is an issue in earlier versions or not.
In the old days when you hand edited /etc/resolv.conf, it was trivial to set a domain search list. It seems that the gnome-control-center dialog provides no way to set a search list through the GUI. It's possible to do so with hand editing or using nm-connection-editor and restarting the network connection, but the obvious GUI way doesn't work.
