It's in the intro text:

"This document specifies an "HTTP" resource record type for the DNS to
  facilitate the lookup of the server hostname of HTTP(s) URIs.  It is
  intended to replace the use of CNAME records for this purpose, and in
  the process provides a solution for the inability of the DNS to allow a
  CNAME to be placed at the apex of a domain name"
