Excellent question.  I think your observations, though, are sound. 
When the system works, it works quite well.  When it doesn't, it can
get ugly.

I'd be very hesitant to install one professionally.  If you could
control EVERY aspect of the installation and much of it's _use_ then it
would be easy.  You install the boxes, the wireless access points, even
the Ethernet cabling.  You buy and configurel the server computer, and
you install the SlimServer software.  You configure it all, and (maybe
most importantly) you control every damned file that goes into the
music library and make sure that every one is tagged perfectly.  How
practical is that?

With even a mildly problematic installation the support costs would eat
you up.
