Issue 777: Officially Support Naked Domains for GAE Apps

[WallyDD]

Please don't use the issues section as a forum. It clogs my email.
Please discuss it here.

The two issues below are unrelated.

I have a site on GAE running very nicely using naked domains. However
GAE no longer allows naked domains to be put up.

You can create filter that deletes everything. BTW I'm not using it as
forum I'm just adding additional information to issue that looks
important to me.

Lastly I'm not even sure that you are Google representative person.
Most probably you are not.

OK, but I don't feel that you even care.

Since GAE does not support naked domains those problems are related. I
have site that was for two years running on naked domain. Now I have
moved to google apps engine and I can't use naked domains. I
understand why and I'm completely OK with that. However there is no
easy way for me to create redirection from naked domain to www.domain.
FireFox does that for me. IE and Chromium does not. Again I'm not
worried too much about that - visitors of my site will find sooner or
later what happened.

However it would be very professional from Google side to keep the
same line in all products. If GAE does not support naked domains
Chromium should not offer to use naked domain (e.g. if you enter
mail.domain.com and there is no mail subdomain, Chromium offers
domain.com, while only www.domain.com works).

Why can you not set up forwarding from the naked domain to www? It is
a DNS function, not anything to do with your browser.

GoDaddy does support maintaining the path and query string on a
redirect (we
have it configured this way).
You just have to navigate through
