Thanks for the suggestion! In my case I'm both on a non-systemd distro
(Guix System) and using --nodnsproxy so that's not an option, but it's
good to know it exists.

systemd-resolved support was added in 2018 (972e16af), while the comment
mentioning the mysterious seemingly-unimplemented global nameservers was
2010 (1cdd39b9). I think needing to change the entire DNS backend to use
a global nameserver instead of DHCP-discovered ones is a bit much to
ask, so a runtime setting would be lovely. :)
