I thought that there is a hook to libusb which allows you to interface with any usb device? I know it requires some development to get it working, but if you need support for some particular device class, that would be the way to go. The other thing to realize that it you're going to be doing usb over lan, so usb 2.0 speeds won't be possible unless the client has a gigabit adapter as well. Your devices will need to understand that they can only operate at 1.1 speed and that means that using devices like high resolution scanners can be potentially a painful experience for the end users.
My experience is mostly with 1g clients, I don't know if this is different with newer 2fs 'rays.
