Seems pretty cool.  What other applications have avahi support?  I
believe gaim does?  This functionality seems a bit hidden, perhaps a
wiki page could be created?  Or maybe for edgy some improvements could
be done to make it more apparent. (ie: In the sharing tab, there could
be a label that says "Click here to install packages required to detect
other network music.  Warning:  This opens network ports".  Or something
similar.)
