root here (and in Perkeep usually) means a permanode with a
"camliRoot" attribute, which value is "importantstuff".

root-blobref here would be the ref (sha224 hashsum) of a permanode
with a camliRoot attribute.
root-name is a tiny bit more user-friendly way to specify the same
thing: it is the value of the camliRoot attribute on the permanode
that you want to use as root. e.g. if the root mentioned in
at/README.txt existed, root-name here could be "importantstuff".
