I have a private network which has its own non-public name server. I
connect to a VPN with "similar" addresses (10.x.y.z) that doesn't know a
thing about my home network (and neither should it). From my POV, that
bind still doesn't allow to properly separate responsibilities here is
an oversight that needs fixing.
