DNSMasq supports reading in the computers host file to provide DNS. I 
did this on another setup a long time ago it worked great. So the web 
config could be modified to add said static entries to the host file.

The documentation says that DNSMasq will reread the hosts file on 
SIGHUP. It also gives a configuration option to specify an alternate 
hosts file.

Out of curiosity why was ISC DHCP used instead of DNSMasq's built in 
DHCP server?
