[squid-users] more delaypool woes

I have 2 squid instances on the same machine, different
ip's; onecacheing, the other redirecting. Users connect to
either.

squid-accel -> a.b.c.201:80 [no cache, redirect only]
  | >>>> our network<<<>>>internet<<< users
  |
squirm [redirect program]
  |
squid-maincache -> a.b.c.200:80
  || >>>>our network<<<>>> internet <<<
users
  ||
  ||
content server

Initially I configured squid-maincache to have a delaypool.
However, delaypools only delays *un-cached* files (and
indeed this is stated in the documentation). Presumably this
is because delaypools was designed with incoming rather
than outgoing traffic in mind?

Sadly this only allows us to shape traffic between the cache and the
content server. Alas, this is not what we want.
We want to delay *cached* files with the same specification
[we really don't like our users ;-) ]

any ideas as to how we might achieve this?
