Cloud Files - Override Expires and Cache-Control headers that CDN sends to Browser but not the CDN's TTL

I'm trying to get a single file to be cached for 3 days on the Cloud Files CDN (Akamai) but then send the file to the browser with the headers:

Expires: Time Now..
Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store

I know Akamai has the Edge-control header for this... but I cant seem to set it on the Cloud Files website.

Does anyone know a good way to achieve this with Cloud Files?

Update:

I have submitted this on Rackspace's feedback site:
http://feedback.rackspace.com/forums/71021-product-feedback/suggestions/4014775-allow-akamai-s-edge-control-header-per-object

If anyone else wants this please vote for it :)

Update June 2014

My suggestion on the rackspace feedback site has been removed.
I'm chasing with support as to why this is.

You cannot set TTL for individual objects. You can set the X-TTL on your CDN Enabled container:

curl -XPOST -H 'x-auth-token: <your token>' -X 'x-ttl: 259200' <your cloudfilesCDN publicURL>/cdn-enabled-container

this will control how long the CDN caches objects in that container.
