There is concern that removing strict-order would at least double the
dns traffic for most users, and is not the proper fix.

>From irc logs (#ubuntu-server, feb 24)

<stgraber> If the reporter is using a desktop machine, the real fix is to use 
NetworkManager which will properly setup dnsmasq to only use the VPN dns server 
for requests relevant to it
<stgraber> hallyn: ok, so just did some tests. The problem there is clearly 
that the remote dns server is misconfigured. Trying with mine, I get NXDOMAIN 
for an invalid domain from a recursive server (as I should) but SERVFAIL for a 
domain outside the scope of a non-recursive server.
<stgraber> SERVFAIL causes dnsmasq to query the next server, NXDOMAIN doesn't.
<stgraber> SERVFAIL is nsd's response when non-recursive. REFUSED is bind's 
response when non-recursive. Both work with dnsmasq.
