I'm afraid not--  the scaling *and* effects application are done at
the same time, so the cached images need to have the effects applied
to them and be named according to the effects used in the XML.
Scripting this is impractical without re-implementing MythUI XML
parsing in your script, having software that can apply all the needed
effects, and reimplementing a fair portion of the caching logic too.
There are long term plans to solve the problem, but this is probably
just going to be a fact of life for .22.
