Hi Tim,
I know what you mean and that's definitely a big issue on our side. This is 
for us more a proof of concept to understand if we can go this way. Since I 
am not a big expert with Kubernetes, I wanted to know if there are 
solutions I haven't considered that might solve my problem.
That said, I thank you a lot for your explanations here. I  found something 
that can help me, though it sets dns names at node level - not per pod:
https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/dns-custom-nameservers/
If I include the different IPs in the stub domains I definitely should get 
an answer for the service discovery part. Not ideal, but I think better 
than mounting and overriding the resolv.conf.
Cheers
Simone
