It's the SlimProto TCP protocol that makes it possible to control
playback from the web interface (or any other interface for that
matter).  SlimRoku actually identifies itself and communicates with the
SlimServer as SoftSqueeze.  So, I suppose in your scenario, SlimRoku is
acting as a Roku-headed SoftSqueeze.  And yes, it did take a
considerable amount of work...

As for SlimServer not working with the Roku line, that only applies to
the SoundBridge, and is actually an issue that has been corrected with
the 6.1.2 nightlies.
