I have an itch. I connect to work using openvpn. Works great, except that

(any other application) to simply overwrite /etc/resolv.conf at will, but
what is fedora missing to get an elegant solution to this problem ?
I use a local DNS server that forwards queries (both forward and reverse
lookups for the network I'm connecting to) down the tunnel. So
/etc/resolv.conf always contains just localhost as the nameserver.
Does that handle the case well where you've got a laptop and you move
from one wireless network to another? How would you get it to recognize
the changing DNS servers in that case?
