Is there any reason why the installer shouldn't contain its own

nameserving, so why shouldn't the istaller? It would remove one step
that's tricky for beginners from the installation process.
Because neither desktops nor most servers really/rarely need a local
DNS daemon.
And how can one discover what nameserver one's Linux system is actually
using?
Usually, look in /etc/resolv.conf from package resolvconf.
