Instead of using a rule that targets *.html can't you add a rewrite rule for every specific page that you change? Then after you changed them all you can replace those rules with a catch all.
You could, but successfully using one of the other options below will make this one unnecessary, right?

? Not sure what you want to do here. If the called page actually exists you already know it's name...
A single 404 page can have PHP code that says "You asked for X page, which no longer exists. The new page and correct URL is Y." Here, X and Y are located in an array, and Y is supplied according to whatever X the visitor requested. I just have to read the docs to see how to get X. Surely not difficult.
Unless you want to combine this with what you mention below.

ErrorDocument 404 /somepage.html
Ah... thanks! <grin>
