Wow, so fast ! It worked flawlessly :

After adding this in the tomcat maven plugin's configuration ..
<aliases>
        <alias>mydomain1.com</alias>
        <alias>mydomain2.com</alias>
</aliases>

These work with tomcat7:run :
http://localhost:8080
http://mydomain1.com:8080
http://mydomain2.com:8080

Bye2 tomcat:deploy !

Thanks !

Do not pursue the past. Do not lose yourself in the future.
The past no longer is. The future has not yet come.
Looking deeply at life as it is in the very here and now,
the practitioner dwells in stability and freedom.
(Thich Nhat Hanh)
