'man NetworkManager' is a good place to start here, which leads you to NetworkManager.conf, which leads you to: dns=dnsmasq which with 0.9.6 and any options you put into custom configuration in /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d, should do exactly what you want. The local caching nameserver functionality has actually been around for quite a few years. Also, on per-connection basis, NM allows appending custom search domains to the list returned by the DHCP server, or as you've found you can hijack the dhclient config files to do what you want too. As always, more documentation would be awesome; we've got a wiki but we can also add stuff to a FAQ in git too.
