Hi Erik.

You may be interested in this post and the thread it belongs to:

http://www.phpinsider.com/smarty-forum/viewtopic.php?p=19733#19733

One of the plugins provided in that post provides for including with
template specified caching parameters.

A long time ago there was another thread that considered assigning
template specific caching attributes. I think it is a worthy idea
compared to template controlled caching but it is likely more trouble
than it is worth, IMHO.
