I think those are good questions, I don't have a lot of unqualified opinions and less answers.

Ok. I don't like what systemd is doing, overall. I don't like their attitude, which seems to be "if you don't like us owning all interfaces, run VMs".

But generally:

* On a modern system it should be possible to specify the resolution plan at the system / user / process level.

* Search lists haven't gone away, and we haven't solved the resource naming problem for what it is: why isn't "mail" or "www" unambiguous? What about "here"? Isn't that really "mail [for here]"?

* Why don't we use the DNS to solve search lists?

I will sit back and watch now.
