I looked into this, but I didn't like the idea of httpd getting tied 
up. The regen-check process only takes between 0.01 and 0.03 seconds 
right now (depending on whether the page needs to be re-rendered), but 
I'm working with only about 40 pages, and one user. The issue is that 
this has to happen for every single page view, so as we scale up the 
number of documents and the number of users, I'm concerned that httpd 
would be spending a good chunk of its time in limbo.
