Before Rick says it, the preceding paragraph was slightly miswritten.
I'm sure on Void Linux there's some package-manager-fu or some other
raindance to get /etc/resolv.conf to do what you want it to, without
making it immutable.
What I was trying to say was that if I wanted to change the *design* of
the system, I'd have to petition the Void Linux packagers and the (urk)
Freedesktop.org "upstream".
