Daniel:
I am in a similar situation and came up with a workaround. The only
gotcha is that the primary domain has to be on "www" and not the naked
domain.
I just setup a non-AppEngine server that redirects all non-www
requests to the same URL but with "www." added on the front. The
server is set
Until google releases something similar to elastic ip we're not going
to progress this issue and the https on custom domain issue. AFAIK
this is the biggest issue for GAE after "make the whole thing
reliable".
No one outside google knows the reason they haven't released this
feature or indeed if
How about using SRV records, instead of CNAME? I don't know if the
popular browsers support them, but if yes, they are a perfectly valid
solution.

It is possible to create a CNAME for a naked domain. Its not widely
supported by all
If you have the server, it is possible to quickly set up a reverse proxy
using nginx that will forward the requests (and change the host header from
domain.com to www.domain.com) to the app engine, obviously there are
latencies and a single point of failure involved.

Hi Daniel,
We don't support 'naked' domains due to issues with the way DNS works (you
can't CNAME a 'naked' domain). We are actively looking for a way to resolve
this.
There's no limitation on what subdomain(s) you can map your app to, however
- it doesn't have to be 'mydomain' or anything else.
