Normally, to add rewrite rules in WordPress there is the generate_rewrite_rules filter. From there you can call the function add_external_rule ($wp_rewrite->add_external_rule($rule)) where you could add your rule which not maps to index.php. Unfortunately WordPress will try to write this rule into the .htaccess file. But maybe this could be helpful.
