You have been subscribed to a public bug:

network-manager-openvpn (or some upstream component) is ignoring the
dhcp-option SEARCH parameter, which means that not only won't additional
domains get appended to search, but if 'Use only for resources on this
connection' is enabled, those domains will not get resolved via the VPN
DNS servers, breaking split-horizon DNS for sites with more than one
domain.  When 'Use only for resources on this connection' is enabled,
the domains enabled in dnsmasq should be a union of dhcp-option SEARCH,
dhcp-option DOMAIN, and reverse domains for networks routed via the
connection.  Currently only the latter two are enabled.

Without 'Use only for resources on this connection' enabled, all DNS
resolution does appear to go via the VPN servers, but this is not
necessarily desirable, and creates a situation where users may be wedged
between having their DNS work as expected, and having their routing work
as expected.
