Greg, I am still playing with pCP a bit. 

Frankly the biggest problem is finding a case for a touchscreen that
will work with (and enclose and protect) a 3B+ and an I2S DAC.** :-) The
Smartipi case with optional extended backs is about the best I've found
so far, but it looks not quite polished/tidy enough for some rooms. :-(

For the httpd I'm pretty comfortable with my loopback binding and
tunneling through ssh. At least with that sshd is the only listening
daemon. BTW I'm glad you chose OpenSSH instead of something like
dropbear.

I also played with Ubuntu Mate today and ooh, boy, Jivelite on pCP is
soo much snapper than my first attempt at Squeezeplay on Mate on Pi that
it's hard to imagine Mate being viable. pCP with a 3B+ seems likely to
be snappier than my Touch but I expect Mate would be a step backward.

** I'd especially like one in which I could fit an IR receiver and a
rotary encoder knob for Radio-style quick volume control.
