You *might* be able to get by flushing the host DNS cache but I don't think any of the browsers have a way to programatically flush their internal DNS cache. Your quick and dirty solution may end up getting really dirty in order to clear that browser cache.
Try flushing the host cache then restarting the browser. If that works it saves you a few seconds over a reboot. Definitely quick and dirty, as you described it though.
