An idea. What about create an extra tap on each host which dnsmasq 
listens on. This tap should then be connected to every bridge on the 
host.

For lease files we could use the same concept behind pve-cluster. 
Configuration and lease files are shared within the cluster using pmxcfs 
it will however, require implementing the POSIX file locking features in 
pmxcfg. dnsmasq is by design thread safe since numerous worker processes 
uses the same lease files and to achieve this dnsmasq uses POSIX file 
locking features like 'exclusive lock' when updating and 'shared lock' 
when reading.
