Interesting idea! Another approach would be to use a geared DC motor for the extruder drive instead of a stepper motor, with an optical rotary encoder to provide feedback, and measure the motor current to determine the force being provided.

You want to use a dc motor to do the work of a stepper? Good luck with stopping the motor precisely. Even if you had a 3600 steps/rev Encoder, it produces more Problems, than it solves.
Better use a current shunt on the 12V line of the stepper driver to measure torque?
