I think it would work in the DNS but it wouldn't solve any real
problems.

If you want to make your applications work with parallel or variant
domain names, the work is about 5% getting the names into the DNS, and
95% getting your web and mail and other application servers to do the
right thing when they see the names.  I can imagine some approaches
but they all involve provisioning systems that should be able to spit
out the required DNS zones while they do everything else, no CNAME or
ANAME or DNAME required.

R's,
