Cannot update System: Settings: General: DNS Servers via API

After having implemented IPv6, there is a need to be able to update the DNS Servers in this list dynamically, and I do not want to be limited to the two DNS servers for each ISC DHCP entry (and I am not using 'Kea DHCP' yet)

It is great that we have eight fields to add DNS Servers to in the System -> Settings -> General area, but it seems you cannot update these elements via the API, can anyone point out how to do it, or would this be a feature request?

Further, just want to say thank you to whoever got the ARP and NDP lists to be available via API - that is amazing and has let me dynamically update my BIND from MAC <-> Hostname for IPv6 rather easily. Also, just want to say to the network-gurus inventing things, thank-goodness MACs for IPv6 == MACs for IPv4. <3

System settings may be on the horizon to be moved to MVC, but we're not entirely there yet. May be something for 26.1 to keep things rolling. I'll keep this in mind.

We've recently reached an 80% done on the conversions, but that was 10 years of work so still a bit ahead of us.  ;)
