[Users] aliases in multi-domain

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

your solution is more expensive from DB size point of view. Each alias 
must be added for all  the domains.
on the other side, you are right - if you are using location for 
aliases, it will be tricky to disable the use_domain option.

as a solution you might use alias_db module for aliases - you will be 
able to set the use_domain without any side effects.
