In Microsoft_WindowsAzure_Storage_Blob::isValidContainerName(), "$root" is a valid container name.
It is mentioned here as supported:
http://phpazure.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Blob%20storage&referringTitle=Getting%20Started

WHen I run I create a $root Blob container, Windows Azure Storage Explorer presents the following error:

"The specified container name "$root" is not valid!Please choose a name that conforms to the naming conventions for containers!"
