[Typo3] performance, cache-control headers and published static pages

I have implemented a very, very basic version of this as an extension:
http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/search/mda_autopublish/

It still has plenty of problems.
Some of them could be easily solved, if I would find a better way to 
invalidate/republish an expired page. Currently I'm redirecting the 
browser to the same URI and deleting the file.
I want to call Typo3 directly and have it overwrite the file. But I have 
still to figure out the best way to do this.

Best regards,
Michael
