There is at least one news-feed I know which has 100+ new entries a
day and Firefox (which, I assume, "respects the cache") doesn't fetch
an updated xml without unless I press Shift+Reload. What would you
say about that? (rhetorical question...)

Another non-rhetorical answer, read their terms of service.

You should definitely look at at least one example to make sure who would be violating the terms, you, or the user of the extension. If it's the user, they should have a chance to switch that behavior off.

It is a painful lesson that many folks like to stage RSS feeds, but not all of them like or are capable of handling the load once they're used as feeds.
