Is it possible for me to use OpenDNS or other DNS servers, and to avoid the default settings for my local network (which I do not control, which comes with the place), or am I stuck with somebody else's choices and configuration?
Have you tried the Arch Wiki's section on setting custom DNS servers for Network Manager?

It seems that Network Manager clobbers /etc/resolv.conf with DHCP-obtained information by default. If you want to use it, you'll have to conform to the way it does things.
