Dieter,

That would be perfect except for the fact that the Accelerated HTTP Cache
Manager doesn't work for pages from the file system, and the CSS files in
question all come from product skins and hence are file system objects.
It's really a bummer that the various cache managers each only operate in
certain domains.

Andy, this is a quick solution for your problem, though -- just customize
all the CSS in the Plone skins and then associate them with an Accelerated
HTTP Cache Manager.
