Correct.

Yep.

Good question. What happens now with the current build ? As far as I can
tell, it just sits there thinking it is still talking to the server and
eventually comes up with a socket error. At that point I suggest a WOL
to the last known server.
I just sent my server to sleep, Squeezelite-X didn't seem to notice,
then I used WakeMeOnLan (a cool little freeby that can send WOL to a
previously seen mac address) to wake the server up, and Squeezelite-X
allowed me to play the next track.

However, while the server was asleep I managed to blank the left hand
pane by clicking New Music and when the server restarted the left hand
pane remained blank while the right hand pane updated.
