I tested bind-interfaces and except-interface=lo in the past (comment
#26), it worked as advertised. I haven't yet tested them in the chained
dnsmasq mode, but I guess it would work if I'm using a static IP (which
isn't always the case for LTSP servers, some teachers use their laptops
for LTSP servers). With a dynamic IP, I'd have to open the NM-connection
editor all the time to update my primary DNS server. So a loopback
address for the dnsmasq service would be preferred locally, while the
non-loopback one would again be required for the LTSP clients.

What I meant in comment #51 is that libvirt then won't be able to ship with
> except-interface=lxcbr0
because it's a syntax error to specify 2 except-interface directives. Maybe it could be allowed in some future dnsmasq version, with the list of declared interfaces being merged.
