I may be wrong, but I don't think there's anything SliMP3-specific about
squeezeslave. It's just a headless player, so it likely doesn't have any
code for display.

I'm not clear why the behavior of Other Players sending commands to the
server is a problem, because that's exactly how the SB3 works as well.
When a fully-functioning SB3 receives an IR command it sends it to the
server, which then sends back a command that the SB3 can understand.
