Damn, I completely overlooked that one, and it indeed does seem to come very close to what I need in this use case.
Thanksfor jolting my memory (also @Kevin) :) 

If I am not mistaken, this would be a valid thesaurus file:

acute mi : heart attack
mi : heart attack
myocardial infarction : heart attack​

Multiple words on both ends, separated by a colon and each line being functional (a unique phrase linked to its more
genericreplacement)?
