Name resolution : options settings
Description
It would be fine if it was possible to manage the "options" line in /etc/resolv.conf to put something like that :
-----snip here-----
options timeout:2 attempts:1 rotate
-----snip here-----

I agree, this would be a nice feature to have.
Matthieu, can you implement this soon?

I see that you set the targeted version to 2.3.7.
This is a feature, not a bug, and the 2.3 branch is a bug fix only branch. Should I fix it anyway ?

The Policy-Template project doesn't have the same constraint, since each PT/Technique has its own version
You can create a new version of this Policy Template (by a small or large increment) to integrate the modification in 2.3

Looks good to me, François can you confirm this is what you wanted?

I'm validating this user story, so that we can release 2.3.7, but I think we can do better.
Currently, we ask the user to input a "options" line compatible with resolv.conf format, but this line is actually a set of sub-options (ndots, timeout, rotate...), some of which take values (number of seconds , number of times) and others are booleans. These would be much better represented by the corresponding fields in Rudder, so I'm opening a new user story for that: #2462.
