I am asking this because I am experiencing that the

doing nameserver lookups before allowing to open a window with my
current soundcard mixer levels.

That it at times takes more than five seconds to open
a window
displaying only a handful of bytes (locally available), tells me that
something is not working excactly as intended.
Or exactly as expected.
If either (1) or (2) is true that illustrates how completely sick
this whole Kit stuff is. BTW also gdm seems to do DNS lookups - at
least you can make it hang for some minutes if you have a working
net connection but no DNS.
I'd advise the Machiavellian approach

which basically means to exterminate the whole family.
