One last idea, even though it's solved... Using the 404 error to do it. I saw an article about SES that did something similar.
As a side note, I finally (I think) got a "404 manager" working for CF. Keeps a log of all 404s, and redirects them if there is a URL to redirect to. Someday I'll clean it up a little and blog it, even though it's relatively easy to roll your own. If it's really working- I had to uncheck "let cf send 404 & 500 errors" to get it to redirect, but I ferget how to log request headers in FF, so I'm not sure it's sending a 301... eh.. back to your regularly scheduled programing...
