Just thought of a hitch.

After removing these lines dnsmasq has to be restarted or it won't notice the change. But you can't just kill the NM-controlled dnsmasq because NM then gets horribly confused. So you have to eliminate those lines in another way, the safest way probably being: temporarily reconfigure your DHCP server so that it only sends one nameserver address (192.168.99.2) to the client, then restart network-manager on the client. Make sure that /run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf contains only the one address. THEN run all your tests again. :)
