Comment(by bforchhammer):

 I just stumbled on another issue that should be considered when/if someone
 starts work on this issue.

 WP SuperCache uses the `.htaccess` file to enable things like "gzip
 compression". I think it might be possible to do a similiar thing on IIS
 (see config value
 [http://www.iis.net/ConfigReference/system.webServer/httpCompression
 httpCompression]). Adding these config values would of course be the job
 of WP SuperCache but the core functions would need to provide support for
 adding arbitrary config values. At the moment only "rewrite rules" are
 possible as far as I know.
