Bug Description
The Unity network panel offered a means to set DNS search data on fixed IP connections maintained via NetworkManager in /etc/NetworkMan
This feature is absent in 18.04 Gnome's gnome-control-
Lack of the feature means the dns-search variable is unset which also causes /etc/resolv.conf to leave the search to be unset. This is unacceptable in a assigned IP address Enterprise environment.
One workaround is to manually edit the NetworkManager system-connections file after its creation to set the variable.
