I believe Ubuntu has patches that push the DNS configuration to dnsmasq
over the dnsmasq daemon's D-Bus interface, instead of writing it to a
file.  So they won't end up in the NM-written dnsmasq.conf.  So
everything should work correctly: the upstream DNS servers get written
to dnsmasq, and 127.0.0.1 gets written to /etc/resolv.conf, and dnsmasq
acts as a caching local nameserver.

What is the specific problem that you're running into?  Does DNS
resolution not work perhaps?
