I don't know if this will make you feel any better, but annoying as the name change is, it isn't in the text of the work, correct? Everything that's on the outside, while part of the actual codex within which The Red Tree will be contained, I view as a fundamentally marketing/promotion. Yes, it affects the physical object in the long-term, but if the short-term purpose is to get people to lay down $$$ for your writing, then maybe it's not so horrible. I don't think anyone out there is wandering around thinking you don't care about your work.
