Ah ok, that makes sense and would provide the flexibility to run a
configurable dnsmasq instance. This bug can be closed AFAIAC.

Title:
  dnsmasq config hard-coded into network manager

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  As indicated at http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-
  ubuntu-12-04/#comment-39100 , Network Manager fires up dnsmasq using
  hard-coded paramaters.

  For those of us who want to use dnsmasq but need to tweak the
  variables (for virtual machine use etc) , this isn't very helpful.
  ideally, Network Manager should use a default file which can be
  overridden.
