No they do not.

I wasn't* wanting to do away with the domain field at all. I was
looking to see if ntlm_auth could be told in some way "if the user
doesn't enter a domain we'll just assume they entered domain X".

* = When I say "wasn't", yes im referring to the past. Ive decided to
stop using NTLM and switched over to LDAP authentication. Sure it
throws an authentication dialog for ALL users now but I need to get
the migration to the new server finished.

Apologies for the late reply.
