Almost year old bug still there. This is core functionality of any OS (secure VPNs, DNS) which just does not work on Ubuntu. I don't know how about other distros but I doubt that Ubuntu can claim to be the desktop system with such a bug.
I can confirm that the simplest workaround is comment out dnsmasq in NetworkManager config (ubuntu 16.04). But there are drawbacks of course so this makes the system less secure/reliable in some situations. And of course it took me about 5 hours to figure out what is going on. Those hours could be spend more productive.
