Namecheap does not allow for A records with host names ending in a period

After overcoming the previous issue and getting Singularity successfully installed, I've run into another problem in the setup instructions, this time with the DNS registration itself.

I have not checked ghandi, but namecheap, at least, does not allow me to register an A record with host name of type "rebinder.myhost.com." (with the ending period). It states that it is an invalid host name.

I've messaged namecheap about this limitation and am waiting to hear back about it. I assume they disabled it for security reasons. Is there a reason that the ending period is required? I'm sure there is, but since they do not allow me to set that up, perhaps I could know more behind why it is required while I wait for them to explain why they disabled that to begin with?
