* Michael Catanzaro:
Of course, this problem is avoidable by unchecking "use this connection only for resources on its network" if you use only one VPN. And failing that: at least the situation is not worse than it was before.
Have you actually tried this with a corporate VPN recently?
It requires that the VPN is actually able to route general Internet traffic for you. At present, I don't think this is a reasonable assumption.
I think the workaround you are suggesting is not available to most users.
Thanks, Florian
