curious if you found a way to do this as I need to do same.

You do need a DNS forwarder (whether its AD or something, Azure Private DNS zones isn't supported currently).

Do I have to make the tweaks of the package I download, then, recreate a package, and deliver that to everyone that needs it and have them do it? I am sure you understand that doing things for a single user versus hundreds is a bit of a different scale. This process also means that anytime something changes we have to remember to repeat it, so, depending how often one has to do that or how many end users and their skillsets, it may be cheaper and easier in the long run to set up a forwarder.
