I think this bug should concentrate on the key issue: that ntp (and maybe others?) is being brought up on the wrong event, that is it comes up with the interface, and not with the chosen type of name server. In our case NIS provides user and name server resolution, and ntp comes up before it with

It is probably true that this has not been seen much as a bug due to DNS normally being available, hence NIS dependency (if present) being a secondary issue. However, we found that ntp did not recover by itself, so possibly it only tries to find the nameservers once, but will re-try for the time
