Network manager and split DNS for a VPN?

Has anyone got split DNS working with a vpnc VPN connection under
16.04-2?

All my googling suggests that this is still a basic bug in
NM/Ubuntu16.04, but maybe someone has figured it out.

I could probably get it working the hard way by installing the real
dnsmasq and hardcoding a suitable split in dnsmasq.conf, but that is a
sad and inflexible method. It would be so much nicer if NM would do it.

It looks as if it wants to. The log is full of optimistic statements
about what it will do - but it just doesn't do it!

Regards, K.
