This is what makes this stop-gap measure so mental, if you pardon my language. Completely unnecessary overhead and creating hundreds of empty apps accounts so that people can get their custom domains working in AppEngine is outright stupid, again, please pardon my language. While Google cannot travel back in time and separate AppEngine from Google Apps, pretending this solution improves or solves the issue is simply unacceptable. Developers need proper and simple custom domain management, period. Google Apps should be entirely out of the picture.
