It would make it easier for site admins to debug issues with their FeedBurner feeds if you could easily compare the way the feeds look on FeedBurner to the way they look on your Drupal site.
I think the best way to accomplish this would be to create a "bypass feed redirection" permission, so that people with that permission wouldn't be redirected to FeedBurner.
Currently, I'm using the Advanced Setting for user agent-based direct access, so everyone browsing in Firefox can get to the real feed. This is OK, since I use FeedBurner for iTunes, but it's obviously not an ideal solution.
I might write a patch for this if I get the time.
By the way, have you considered renaming the "MyBrand custom domain" setting, since it is now being used by everyone who has had their feeds migrated over to Google? This makes the setting name & description a bit misleading.

There is actually a built-in redirection skip if you add ?redirect=no to the URL of the feed. (Or &redirect=no if you use clean URLs).

Oh, OK. I had forgotten about this feature. Is it documented? I think this should probably be sufficient then. Feel free to mark as won't fix, postponed, etc. at your discretion :)
