No, "-R" (aka "no-resolv") tells dnsmasq to not use the servers listed
in /etc/resolv.conf for *anything*. In this case, all that is wanted is
to resolve requests _within the configured domain_ only locally, and not
forward those requests upstream. Requests for any other domain _should_
be forwarded to whatever server is listed in /etc/resolv.conf. Based on
a discussion with Josh, I'm certain that this is the behavior he wants
(and it makes sense to have it available).

Interesting idea - this requires specifying the IP/prefix of the network
in the option along with domain (which I suppose isn't a problem), and
has the same effect as adding local=/domain.com/ as well as the reverse
resolution, which is a nice plus. However, the prefix for the network
must be 8, 16, or 24 for this to work (because of the way that
*.in-addr.arpa records are defined), so we can't do this all the time.
The question is then - do we write in a special case to do it this way
when the prefix is one of the right lengths, or just not do it at all?
Having it "magically happen" for some configs and not others could lead
to confusion, but having reverse resolution when possible would be very
useful (for example, some sshd setups have a long delay if the
reverse-resolve of the client's IP doesn't return something other than
"not found"; a pointless piece of security theater, but still fairly
common).

I'm not following this. Although the parsing code doesn't validate it,
the domain name in libvirt's XML is only allowed to be a single
"dnsName" according to the schema, and that is also what is documented
in formatnetwork.html. And I can't think of any useful reason for
specifying an IP address as the name (even though neither libvirt nor
dnsmasq produces an error when you do that, it is simply a broken
concept from the beginning).
