Currently FallbackNameservers are used only if no nameservers are
available for a service, i.e. nothing is received from DHCP and no
servers are set manually for the service. The description in main.conf
seems to be misleading here.

Either something like this, or then we should fix the description in
main.conf. Then there is also the FallbackTimeservers, which seem -
again wrongly - to always append its values. Both FallbackTimeservers
and FallbackNameservers should be expected to work in the same way and
thus the documentation in main.conf for one of them is wrong. Let's see.

If one knows the nameservers are not to be trusted, there always is the
per service Nameservers.Configuration option which is the correct place
to set this one up. This should work in your case.
