but the goal is to be able to maintain a few websites with it). Each

I agree whole-heartedly.
There are very few drawbacks to serving directly from the filesystem
(only one I can think of, which has to do with access control to the
content),
Sometimes the static content shouldn't be accessible at a permanent URL for
security reasons.

Good.
MySQL blobs are pretty fast, btw.
Ah :)
I'm interested about this. Do you have numbers?
Performance should be (almost)
The way I (and I assume many others) implement image thumbnails could be
the way to go.. (unless you need the access control)
The server handles things as per any normal static content with a 404
handler dealing with missing files. The handler creates and serves the
file so any future requests
Look, I think I didn't properly explain what I need. Or, maybe you
didn't read all my email and just noticed that I intend to keep file
content in a BLOB. :-)

Excellent! Thanks for this.
Will look into it.
1. is the file cached?
