So I would see *.local queries in the query log on the local caching

I would expect to yes. At least that was the behaviour when I tested it.
-> lookup for invalid.local in mDNS server -> timeout
-> lookup for invalid.local in local NS server -> NXDOMAIN
The Query log is not showing any of these
Ah sorry I steered a bit wrong. Squid will not add the .local part
itself. Resolv.conf or equivalent "search list" settings are still
required to do that mapping part. The mDNS only steps in with a
different resolver if the domain tail matches ".local".
OK, since we didn't configure this, it won't be queried.
What does the idns cache manager report say about #QUERIES vs
#REPLIES on each of your NS ?
"idns cache manager"? Is that a function of Squid or in my local
caching DNS?
It is one of the squid cachmgr reports called "idns".
