Tristan, how is that a leak? Connections to 8.8.8.8 will go through the
VPN, not outside of it. By the way, the problem remaining is that
sometimes NM seems to still use the DNS of the router as well. It's as
if without VPN you have say 192.168.0.1 as primary DNS, but with VPN you
get these DNS servers:

8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
192.168.0.1 (for example)

Then sometimes the third DNS receives the query. I will experiment with
setting the static DNS to the Wi-Fi connection as well. Of course it
would be easier if this bug actually gets fixed.
