I realize that in context, this is confusing.  In Mailman 2.2 if you  
don't use LMTP_ONLY_DOMAINS, you'll get the individual -subqueue  
entries in the transport file, but I believe you will not have name  
collisions because the same entries do not need to be added to the  
alias files.  LMTP delivery rocks!  (Thanks to Tokio :).
