Let's  not  forget that NM is not suitable for someone running a local
DNS  server  (bind  with DNSSEC enabled). It also does not work at all
when used on a laptop as a caching DNS.

There  is a F14^H^H^HF15 feature to make NM work with bind and DSNSEC.
I  look  forward to it - my girlfriend's ISP's DNS servers can take up
to  10  seconds  to resolve an address, and occasionally simply do not
resolve legit URLs.
