Lyceum does not support this directly at this point. It can probably done 
relatively easily using mod_rewrite to direct domains to various 
example.com/slug addresses. However, all of the sites would have the same 
user database.

Juset set MAINDOMAIN in wp-config.php to domain.com.

Hm, I've never thought of this feature before. It should actually be 
relatively easy to implement. Make a ticket for it here 
and set the milestone to The Future:

If you don't want each blog to share a user database, that would be the 
only way to do it.

Thank you for your kind words!
