Custom domain name for azure website deployment slot?

I've got a web site on azure with a second deployment slot for staging. Let's say its example.azurewebsites.net and example-staging.azurewebsites.net. When I try to add a custom domain (i.e. stage.example.com), it tells me I must first make stage.example.com a CNAME of example(staging).azurewebsites.net. That last part... that doesn't work. Domains can't have ( and ) in them.. Is this a bug in Azure or am I missing something?

This has been fixed in the latest UX redesign for App Service custom domains.

The message is wrong. Please refer to the message in the full Azure portal (manage.windowsazure.com): "To verify authorization, create a CNAME resource record with your DNS provider that points from either www.yourdomain.com to example-staging.azurewebsites.net, or from awverify.www.yourdomain.com to awverify.example-staging.azurewebsites.net.
