Thanks for the research on this guys. I had been a idle spectator to the
systemd controversies, but didn't realize that I might be bumping up
into those choices in a real way myself.

Attached is my systemd-resolve --status. I imagine it shows what you are
talking about.

And I also went ahead and tried to switch to dnsmasq and see if that
fixed the problem. Unfortunately, it seems that I may need to do
something different to actually shut down systemd-resolved. I tried
those  instructions with a restart, and systemd-resolved was still
running. I tried those instructions without a restart, but either
systemd-resolved started up again by itself or perhaps by me
reconnecting to my VPN via network-manager. I did confirm that systemd-
resolved was at some point disabled after executing the commands in step
#2 of those instructions, but not sure what started it up again.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but DNS leaking via systemd related issues
should be a pretty high priority bug, correct? If it's not the case, and
your sense is that there are a lot of technical or political hurdles to
this being corrected, perhaps it makes sense for me to return to 16.04
in the meantime.
