Like post #1 in this thread, I'm also a new Squeezebox owner and find
the Squeezecenter web interface frustratingly slow.

The interface via the Squeezebox itself is so fast I'm in awe to those
who created it every time I hold the remote!  I am amazed how well it
works, even when the Squeezecenter host PC is loaded with other tasks.

I like exploring my music collection - very rarely do I set-up a
playlist and let it run without the first or second song re-igniting
some memory within - causing me to play a random album/song I'd
forgotten about.

As an analogy, Streetmap/Mapquest etc (server-side html) are good when
you know EXACTLY where you want to go.  Google Maps (client-side/AJAX)
tempts you to explore - you find where you want to go, but then you
feel compelled to have a look around, switch to the aerial view, look
at the photo of your house from 1995!  It's much more fun.  Honestly -
who's looked where they live/work/been on holiday/... on Streetmap???

So... Is it possible to run a client-side/AJAX Squeezecenter web
interface that draws you in?!?!?  Or have I missed the point?
