URL based purge is good only when you know the URLs to purge and the
content is not embedded in the listings (like news portlet). Purge works
well for images and files which have fixed urls and don't have payload
embedded in HTML. If the site is complex it's very hard to set rules how to
purge the listing pages where the content item appears... I am not sure
could this be done with etags and stuff? Plone internally does not know it.
I think there was a trick involving the last catalog modification date, but
I don't know how to execute it.

If  it's not too expensive you can simply purge the whole Varnish at once
on every Plone edit:

Suitable for low edit volume sites.
