I don't think that you manage the root domain so you probably mean
that you want to add a CNAME to *your* domain?

Short answer: don't do it. Bad idea. And unecessary since all Internet
protocols (with one big exception) allow you to separate the domain
from the server gosting the domain.

Long answer: the unfortunate exception is HTTP :-( A possible solution
is to add address records (A and AAAA) to domain.com. (don't forget the
dot at the end). True, it requires that you keep track of the changes
in x.y.com., but this is the only clean solution.
