Except it's not correct that we don't have resolved in 16.04. We're not
using resolved in the *desktop or server* in 16.04. Ubuntu Core 16 has
explicitly seeded libnss-resolve in their image, you can see it configured
in /etc/nsswitch.conf; for some reason the symlink that libnss-resolve sets
up for /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/systemd-resolved.service
→ /lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service is absent, but this may be a
bug related to the bind mounts over /etc/systemd and maybe shouldn't be
relied on. I certainly don't know what to expect from the current resolved
setup in Ubuntu Core 16, combined with the cloud-init systemd changes from
zesty.

(Martin, I don't suppose the snappy team talked to you before seeding
libnss-resolve, which is a universe package in xenial, in their images...?)
