I believe I have done this correctly. Via the web UI, I go to Network, and under LAN Settings, I've filled in the Use custom DNS servers field with 2 IP addresses from OpenDNS.
From a client's perspective, I'm getting the Router's IP address (10.10.10.254), which might be fine, but then it doesn't appear as though the A+ is using the OpenDNS addresses because when I type in a nonsense domain name, I am still getting Verizon's dumb searchassist service, which I do not want. When I go into advanced, and look at the interface config page for the WAN interface, on the Advanced tab it shows to ignore the advertised DNS, and use the custom 2 addresses I supplied.
Is there more I need to do??

I had to do it through the openWRT interface.

Did you get this sorted?
For me it seems to be falling back the the DNS provided by my ISP at random moments, then I fiddle with it and it works again but later it seems to forget again.

Yep mine also does the same (had it happen about 4 times) and I have to reboot, or go back in and reconfigure it. It annoys my wife no end since we use unodns to get British TV in the USA. It usually happens whilst I'm on travel... I haven't told her that I could VPN in and fix it though :)

In openwrt ui ,
Network -- interfaces - lan - DHCP server - advance settings -- DHCP-Options
Add 6,dnsserverip1,dnsserverip2 and hit save
Note :
Ref : http://www.networksorcery.com/enp/protocol/bootp/options.htm
option code 6 is for force dns server ip
