Title:
VPN - "Additional Search Domains" Settings are being Ignored
Status in Network Manager Applet:

Status in network-manager-vpnc:

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
During configuring of a VPN, Network Manager normally allows you to
specify "additional Search Domains" that are located on the virtual
private network:

However, in Ubuntu 16.10 the network manager is ignoring the
"additional Search Domains" that I've specified at the dialog I've
linked above.
Normally, after connecting to a VPN (where additional Search Domains
are specified), the command (below) will show (in addition to your
local Search Domains) the remote Search Domains (located on the VPN):
nmcli dev show | grep DOMAIN
Unfortunately, in Ubuntu 16.10, this is not working. Consequently, I
cannot resolve remote computers by their computer-name because the
"Search Domains" I've specified are not getting appended to the
computer-names I'm pinging.
I've confirm this issue on both OpenVPN and Cisco vpnc connections.
The additional Search Domains are not making it here:
nmcli dev show | grep DOMAIN
