While I agree with that (and was of course piqued by the lousy description of why you can't have a CNAME at the apex -- err, sorry, "root" -- of a zone, as though this was just some perverse restriction pvm foisted upon the world), I think this name is the right one for their audience. Customers call this "CNAME at the root" all the time, regardless of whether I like that. If you want people who don't understand DNS to find your feature, you'll call it that on your blog too. Now, why waste the opportunity to explain all of this? I don't know.
