On my home LAN, I run my own DNSSEC-enabled server using F20 & bind 9.
This local server also is my DHCP and Samba server. As usual, dynamic

automatically.
How does this proposed change affect my clients, or especially my
server (which uses NetworkManager (not Network), and a static IP
address?
This should work just fine. If you upgrade your F20 machine to say F22, it would have
the default resolver running on 127.0.0.1:53 with its entry in '/etc/resolv.conf'.
One change you would need to do is to make it listen on 0.0.0.0:53 or the on static IP
address of your server. Your clients won't know that they are talking to a different
DNS resolver.
If your clients are upgraded to F22, NetworkManager there would make the local resolver
talk to the one on your server, because it'll receive that name server configuration
via DHCP.
As nice as unbound may be, documentation and configuration
files
related to this change should not assume it is the only DNS server for
Fedora.
Nope, we don't assume that. In fact it's been discussed earlier
