Bug Description
Precondition: You need to have a working DHCP wired connection.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Right-click on nm-applet icon, select "Edit Connections".
2. Select the wired connection (mine is named "Auto eth0"). Click on Edit.
3. Check that "Connect automatically" and "System setting" are enabled.
4. Select "IPv4 Settings" tab.
5. Change Method from "Automatic (DHCP)" to "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only".
6. Set DNS Servers to "80.58.
7. Click on OK, and then click on Close.
8. Reboot the computer.
9. Go again to "Edit Connections"
Expected behavior: The method still is "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only", and the DNS Servers still are "80.58.
Actual behavior: The method is "Automathic (DHCP)" and there is no DNS Servers. If you do:
$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 62.42.230.24
nameserver 62.42.63.52
That way, I can't manually set the DNS servers of my Internet connection, because their values doesn't persist in NetworkManager.

My problem is when I change from Automatic (DHCP) to manual. After a reboot the configuration remains Automatic (DHCP).
