Is it possible to map domains to nothing?  For example, in 

domainMapping="automotive '', medical medicine, 'criminal law' law, 'property law' law"

automotive is just ignored.  I don't really know whether this makes sense, but it seems that if you are dealing with keywords, such as in the HTML5 spec

<meta name="keywords" content="british,type face,font,fonts,highway,highways">

it seems that you might want to exclude a bunch of keywords in order to home in on the key domain information.  That might be easier to do in that way, rather than in mapping them all to a different word.
