With dhcpcd you can do something similar. When I was setting up dnsmasq on my
system I found out you can create hooks for dhcpcd; for instance,
in /etc/dhcpcd.enter-hook I have (well, now "had"):

        # Prepend localhost to the list of DNS servers
        new_domain_name_servers="127.0.0.1 ${new_domain_name_servers}"

The resulting resolv.conf:

    marcec marcec # cat /etc/resolv.conf
    # Generated by dhcpcd from eth0
    # /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line
    search huntemann.uni-oldenburg.de
    nameserver 127.0.0.1
    nameserver 192.168.0.250
    # /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line

However, the comments in resolv.conf indicate you you can create one or both of
/etc/resolv.conf.{head,tail}, which will be merged into /etc/resolv.conf
automatically! The resulting resolv.conf:

    marcec marcec # cat /etc/resolv.conf
    # Generated by dhcpcd from eth0
    # force localhost as first nameserver
    nameserver 127.0.0.1
    search huntemann.uni-oldenburg.de
    nameserver 192.168.0.250
    # /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line

So both methods are slighly different. I think I'll stick with the latter now,
as I think it's more correct. However, I'm not sure whether this works with
other DHCP clients or just for dhcpcd.
