Ok so it looks like this isn't quite the same thing.

FWIW, I can make sure the domain name and hostname appear properly in
hostname / hostname -f by setting /etc/domainname as well as
/etc/hostname, and in that case NM properly add a line for both in
/etc/hosts:

10.10.10.16     demeter.cyphermox.net   demeter # Added by
NetworkManager

However, this doesn't fix the issue that /etc/hosts gets changed, and
bug 632896 still applies.

There is a possible workaround in adding:
[keyfile]
hostname = <hostname>

in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf, but I wasn't able to
have that work to stop /etc/hosts from being modified.
