It doesn't strike me as worthwhile to worry about for as little time as will be spent there by a seasoned player.

The bigger problem, imho, between seasoned players and newer players at lower/mid levels is the intimate knowledge of the quests possessed by the seasoned players. I see no way to balance, in a game mechanic, the knowlege of a person who has run a quest dozens, perhaps hundreds of times with someone who's experiencing it for the first time.
More randomization of dungeons would be one possible solution, however the basic quest would still be the same.
