Methods for having a separate Unsubscribe link for each branding domain

Looking around on the community it doesn't look like it's possible to have a separate Unsubscribe link for each branding domain, is that right?

(I'm referencing number 6 under "What's Really Missing")

Is there no variable that can be used in the in the Unsubscribe HTML in the Email Admin section that will change dynamically based on the chosen branding domain?

I had an idea for a workaround, where perhaps the user can be redirected to the right unsubscribe page based on what the document.referrer value is. I assume this would work as long as the user were being referred by the email tracking server. Let me know if this sounds risky.

Another alternative is, for all emails that are not using the default branding domain, to make them operational emails to hide the default Unsubscribe HTML and to add the unsubscribe link directly to the template. Is this the best option for now?

Thank you,
Eben

Just setup a domain alias for each in Admin > Landing Pages > Rules and then direct the user accordingly in each email to the right unsubscribe link.

Change the link in your email like <my_domain_alias>/Unsubscribe.html depending on which tracking link your using for the email.

You get even do it with a my.token for an entire folder if you know ahead of time all the emails in that folder will have a specific tracking link!

We use the referrer as you mentioned. In such a controlled navigation, it'll be totally reliable, but if your primary LP domain is running over https: then your branding domain must be secure as well.

Thanks Sanford, good to know this would be okay.
