Funny, i had that exact same problem and mentioned it to Leif but chalked it up to my local config strangeness. We should def. mention this somewhere.
Yeah, it's a bit of a mess, but we tried our best to communicate this (this is also why 2.1.x was "unstable" :). Fwiw, this is also why I implemented that little perl module that lets you script the updates to a records.config file. There's one example using it for setting up a forward proxy, in the source tree at contrib/perl/ConfigMgmt/examples/forward_proxy.pl. In the interest of showing what I do on my "CDN", I'm also attaching the script I use to configure my reverse proxy.
I highly recommend using a script similar to this for keeping your configs up to date. This way, if we change something in records.config (not likely in the 3.0.x release, but could certainly happen on trunk and 3.1.x/3.2.0), you can keep your config file up to date.
