I tried something along those lines but failed, so kudos to you for
making it work.  

Another use for this, would be to receive your own Icecast
transmissions from Winamp or MediaMonkey, thereby allowing one of those
programs to be the front-end controlling what is to be played through
your Squeezebox-equipped audio system. 

More generally, your hack provides a method of slaving SqueezeCenter to
another media player, with ogg/flac as the lossless stream format
between the two systems.
