Local alias index.

Hi, I'm curious if there is a way to manually create aliases? I believe the current alias support in Filebot is only for TVDB aliases, so it would be really useful to create our own where TVDB has none.
As a specific example, scene releases of @midnight are released as "At Midnight". It makes sense for "At Midnight" to be an alias of @midnight because not only do you pronounce it "at midnight" but they also revert to "at midnight" when the show cannot use @ (http://www.facebook.com/atmidnight). I've put in a request to add "at midnight" as an alias to the TVDB @midnight entry, but it's been quite a while since I made the request and they have yet to respond to it.
This is frustrating to me because file bot currently completely misses @midnight due to the stupid way they are released by the scene. A simple regex or replacement for "at midnight -> @midnight" before searching the TVDB would be ideal, and being able to set this up for any content in the future would allow us end users more control over how things get sorted. If there isn't a way currently, I would definitely appreciate the consideration of this feature!
Thanks
