[Dnsmasq-discuss] Does dnsmasq support forwarding EDNS queries?

Hello,

I'm using dnsmasq as a local caching resolver and some of my queries result
in large answers (~1300 bytes) that are truncated without EDNS.

When I query my local dnsmasq daemon:

dig @localhost <record.with.big.answer>

dig sends a query to dnsmasq using EDNS but dnsmasq forwards that query to
its upstream server without using EDNS.

Is this just how dnsmasq works or is there a way to make dnsmasq forward
EDNS queries? (Or am I missing something?)

Thanks in advance.
