I'm just another squeezebox user looking for the most basic of
multi-library support (would like to have a "kids music" section,
without just having to browse by folder)

If you have specific genres, then you could create an Advanced Search and save it as a library definition. Might need some SQL tweaking in the configuration file, but you said that was ok.

Related question - I'm on 7.8.1 installed via apt, I presume I'm better
off migrating to 7.9? Haven't looked for a package yet but am ok with
cloning a source repo if need be

Yes, go with 7.9. It's the best LMS ever - so far :-).

Am fine with SQL, but unclear if I could browse my virtual libraries
using "Squeezer" android app... or even with 7.9 is the commercial
plugin needed...

LMS 7.9 provides the backend for virtual library support, plus a rather limited UI using the Advanced Search. The idea was that 3rd party plugins would provide the UI to define libraries. But I'm not sure we're going to see anything soon :-(.

WRT Squeezer: any app which uses the standard menus should work. I don't know about Squeezer specifically though.
