So, one thing to note is that dispatcher.d only works for "up" and "down" actions, but it doesn't work for obtaining new leases on an interface that is already up, which dhclient hooks do.

On every system, both upgraded and fresh installs, i use a script (first attachment) for updating a DNS record through DNSSEC. Using /etc/network/interfaces or invoking dhclient directly correctly updates the DNS record (second attachment). Using network-manager the DNS record update script doesn't seem to run (third attachment). On a laptop it is inconvenient to constantly reconfigure devices. For desktops, a workaround is to have a dhcp entry in /etc/network/interfaces for the relevant connection. As a side note, the script is designed to work with PPP ip-up.d as well. However, I haven't yet found a way to configure network-manager to dial up to 3G over a bluetooth connected modem. It may apply here similarily though. Wvdial works with the script.
