My dovecot-ldap.conf contains:

I'm setting mailbox=mail because otherwise dovecot uses postfix's

only choices to either use postfix's supplied destination, or to
override that and explicitly set the home directory and mailbox type
in the LDAP database?
Do you mean you want to drop the domain part for all users (use %n and
not %u in mail_location), or do you mean you just want to handle some
aliases? I think you should be able to handle aliases on Postfix side.
The former. I get it now, I didn't understand the interaction and
hierarchy between userdb settings and global settings.
One thing that confused me is that setting the home attribute in
userdb doesn't override mail_location, and in fact doesn't seem to
have any affect unless the mail attribute is set. So, is it correct
that mail_location is the rule, unless mail is set in user_attrs, in
which case mail_location is overridden with the attributes from
user_attrs? Is that how it works?
