That makes sense if and only if you want to repeat your-filter and
DEFLATE on every request rather than cache the ready-processed contents.

In principle, mod_filter enables you to control the ordering of output
filters,  so you could just configure the above with a FilterChain
directive.  The problem with that is that mod_cache does its own thing.

I suspect the easiest solution may be to use mod_cache's filters
but without using mod_cache's handler.  I'm not sure how much work
that'll involve: presumably mod_cache can largely be cloned, except
for the insert-filters bit.  Doing it in Perl with mod_perl should
be an option.
