I have used #3 with wget and rdist to push out my site to non-midgard
hosting. If the result pages do not require interactivity it works well
with a little care in your page naming.

I have also experimented with #3 to generate off-site interactive pages
that contained PHP code. I had two styles defined for my content on the
staging server, one 'live' for testing and one that used literal
formatting to output the PHP code instead of executing it, and this site I
exported using wget/rdist. It worked but required much eye for detail, and
since I'm moving to live Midgard hosting for my site I've stopped
experimenting with it.
