I don't think that it's a good idea to rely on ajax magic for this. If 
you can provide me a short example of the what you tried to do with 
{dynamic} in the plugins, I'll have a look at it.
It should be possible to load non cacheable data into smarty templates. 
Maybe a custom plugin for smarty can do this.
