I don't say anything of this is undoable. Actually I AM doing quite a
bit of this right now ;-)
But building lists of albums, artists etc. is just the easy part.
Not all plugins are pure server side stuff, some DO display stuff and
they typically do this through HTML and TT. So if you want to support
this on an iPhone UI you can either code everything for your own OR you
try to find a nice way to avoid it, which is what Erland and I have been
trying to start in this thread:

Where did you find the stuff about STREAMED media playback, btw, I
didn't find that so far (didn't look too much, though). The biggest
challenge may be to implement the SB protocol, ideally to have
something like a squeezeslave port for iPhone.
