Cloudflare recently announced support for CNAME functionality from naked domains. See: 'Introducing CNAME Flattening: RFC-Compliant CNAMEs at a Domain's Root' http://blog.cloudflare.com/introducing-cname-flattening-rfc-....

Obviously www. is extraneous if you can get the CNAME functionality.

Straying off a bit, but I'm using this feature by CloudFlare on my personal site which is hosted on Github.

The CNAME Flattening feature is awesome, and according to David Ensinger (http://davidensinger.com/2014/04/transferring-the-dns-from-n...) there are a bunch of neat performance boosts too.

DNSimple offers this too, but they call it an ALIAS record.
