All the above doesn't help. Unless you want to become a CDN yourself, but that 
defies somewhat the purpose.

No, what we currently do with our SVN-based deployed graphics is to 

 - sync these to Amazon S3
 - when they became available in the CDN, render the CDN-links inside the 
website


So those two steps must be done as well :

 - extract all images, on demand or in a separate step doesn't matter. Publish 
them into the CDN
 - render the CDN links instead of local ones, once the sync has taken place.

I can think of ways to patch this into ZMS or ZOPE, but rather go a 
recommended way of course.
