if add a domain with nameserver in the DNS tab it's add only routing only domain (at least on linux). eg if i add foo.com to 1.2.3.4 then i see something like this on the resolvectl output:

Link 5 (wt0)
    Current Scopes: DNS
         Protocols: +DefaultRoute LLMNR=resolve -mDNS -DNSOverTLS DNSSEC=no/unsupported
Current DNS Server: 100.76.24.179
       DNS Servers: 100.76.24.179
        DNS Domain: netbird.cloud ~foo.com

this result that if i try to resolve a name with:
resolvectl query bar.foo.com
than it's working, BUT if i try with short name only eg:
resolvectl query bar or ping bar
than it's not working. and currently I'm not able to solve it.

it'd be nice if i can add search domains too. The best would be if i can configure whether add routing or search domain in the DNS tab.
