For DNS, I'm suggesting that "FallbackDNSServers=\n" should be added to the 
configuration file. The only case where I can see no configured DNS servers 
being populated with preset DNS servers would be when DHCP is used, in which 
case, NetworkManager can be modified to include some logic for that. 
Otherwise, the system is actively acting against the interests of the user.
