On the name mapping editor, you have an upper and a lower pane. The upper pane shows all the mapped objects. The lower pane shows all the aliases you've created for them. But you don't actually need to create an alias for every object; it's optional. So, if your upper tree shows something like this:
Sys
..iexplore
....pageFameFinancialAidPrintFafsaRe
......formAspnetform
........panelRadwindowwrapperCtl00Conten
..........table
............cellRwtitlebar
..............tableRwtitlebarcontrols
................cell1
Your alias tree doesn't have to show all those objects if you don't want them to. My guess is that you'll never have to deal directly with the "formAspnetform" or "panelRadwindowwrapperCtl00Conten" objects, in which case you could just leave them out and make your alias tree look something like this:
pageFinancialAid
..table
....cell1
Then in scripts you can refer to the cell1 object using the shorter name, Aliases.pageFinancialAid.table.cell1
Sys
..iexplore
....pageFameFinancialAidPrintFafsaRe
......formAspnetform
........panelRadwindowwrapperCtl00Conten
..........table
............cellRwtitlebar
..............tableRwtitlebarcontrols
................cell1
