Hi,

Not remote controllable in that sense, but it is possible to control
running instances from the command line (in a way very similar to XMMS).

If you think this is a PITA, you can add it as a feature request
to our bugtracker: <http://aqualung.sf.net/mantis>

Dunno ;)
(Just a wild guess: in today's cold hard bloody world, appearance
is a major factor when choosing between otherwise nearly equivalent
alternatives... ;))

btw, Aqualung's first and most important feature is not skinability,
but sample-accurate track changing (so you can play concert recordings
without the sound getting interrupted on track changes), sample rate
conversion via Erik de Castro Lopo's libsamplerate and LADSPA support.
