I can't do that because we have to display slightly different content to different users and the only way we can distinguish the user is by what address they typed in. If we use A records in domain2 to the website of domain1 then domain1 is replaced in the address bar. If we use CNAMEs then domain2 stays in the address bar and we can read host headers to provide different content and know where they came from when their session times out without using cookies.
