"Origin" is an established term for the name of the parent.

name = "blabla.example."
origin of "name" = "example."

Anyway, I still think that DNSName('@') is better than any constant with 
cryptic name.

Honza, can you see any problem with this? I know this creates instance again 
and again, but is it a real problem? I would like to avoid premature 
optimization... :-)
