Frankly, I've always found the web interface a little unwieldy for
browsing/rediscovering music. It's too slow for listing artists, not
synamic and visual enough in this respect.

In recent times, I've basically more or less switched to either using
White Bear Media Server to control SBS through a media player (in my
case WMP-12, but whatever), because I have a native interface in
Windows this way, which is much more graphical and quick. It also has
advantage of allowing me to play music of/to the computer I am using
bypassing the Squeezebox. Or I use the iPeng app on my iPhone, where I
again have a quick and browsable and very visual representation of the
music.

I'll sometimes use the web interface for a search or to fire off a
radio station but that's it. A quick, much more media-player-like
implementation of the web interface would maybe make me think about
going back.

As a thought: IE9 under Windows allows you to pin a website as a
pretend application to the task bar with controls exposed upon a right
click. One could try to implement play/pause fwd/rev on something like
this even.
