What is this request exactly? Are you requesting that in the Roku Jellyfin app you can define DNS servers that should be used? If so, why would you not just use those local DNS servers for the Roku device, as I'm assuming that the local DNS server would also resolve any non local domains.
I really can't imagine that providing app specific DNS servers would be beneficial given the amount of work that would be required, as to do it properly you'd have to ensure you supported host headers. For this to, I'm pretty sure you'd have to effectively implement your own ifHttpAgent, along with the HTTP Protocol, Cookie Support and certificate support. I'm not saying it's not possible, but I just imagine it's a huge amount of work with plenty of opportunities to introduce bugs, and can't see a use case for it over setting the Roku box to use the local DNS servers.
