kazuhiro MIYASHITA, I have done a lot of thinking about this. I have a blueprint on hold until Kilo for Neutron/Designate integration [1].
However, my blueprint doesn't quite address what you are going after here. An assumption that I have made is that Designate is an external or internet facing service so a Neutron router needs to be in the datapath to carry requests from dnsmasq to an external network. The advantage of this is that it is how Neutron works today so there is no new development needed. Could you elaborate on the advantages of connecting dnsmasq directly to the external network where Designate will be available?
