  I use a VPN configured with network-manager-openconnect-gnome in which a
  split-horizon DNS setup assigns different addresses to some names inside
  the remote network than the addresses seen for those names from outside
  the remote network.  However, systemd-resolved often decides to ignore
  the VPN’s DNS servers and use the local network’s DNS servers to resolve
  names (whether in the remote domain or not), breaking the split-horizon
  DNS.
