Haven't you used the web interface to SlimServer?  You can use it to
control streaming to a Squeezebox from the server, but currently
there's no ability to control a Squeezebox/SqueezeNetwork connection
through the web interface.

I'm not following the logic here.  Having video out would be one thing,
and fairly trivial, but transporting that signal to multiple other
rooms, would be quite another.

I could maybe see a device that could shadow a Squeezebox's input and
output, as described in my last post, but again, it probably wouldn't
be cheap enough to make it more attractive than just buying another
Squeezebox.

Probably most.  Which means you need a TV nearby just to control the
device.  That's the reason why the Squeezebox has a screen instead of
using video output.
