Just thought of a hitch.

After removing these lines dnsmasq has to be restarted or it won't
notice the change.  But you can't just kill the NM-controlled dnsmasq
because NM then gets horribly confused.  So you have to eliminate those
lines in another way, the safest way probably being: temporarily
reconfigure your DHCP server so that it only sends one nameserver
address (192.168.99.2) to the client, then restart network-manager on
the client.  Make sure that /run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf contains only the
one address.  THEN run all your tests again.  :)
