caching> That's one good reason where this is currently failing. The NM
instance won't cache. That's disabled on purpose, but we'll re-enable
for 12.10 or later once we can have per-user caches and something
secure.

library> unfortunately, that won't help. library use, with not being
able to keep state (e.g. have I tried this server yet? did it respond?)
is one of the issues we're fixing with dnsmasq, which can't be tackled
by a library.

Using dnsmasq via dbus is a likely good way to fix this, but there are
countless possible issues with assuming that the centrally running
instance of dnsmasq is the one you also want to use for resolving your
own stuff, and to update with information from DHCP.
