How about an option to choose which client the subsonic app remote control feature (RC) will control. My server is not hooked up to any stereo and probably never will be. But if I can have my android app control the client loaded up on my laptops browser then that would be great! Would this be possible?

This would be a nice feature for me as well!
It can be achieved to some extend by using a playlist.
Set the subsonic player to "external player", for the current player. Leave player name untouched, e.a. "player 45", deselect "Control player automatically" and select Dynamic IP.
Now go to the device that's connected to the stereo, and add "http://*serverURL*/stream?player=45&suffix=.mp3" to the playlist.
Go to the subsonic page on any device, and select player 45, and start playing music. Now go to the device connected to the stereo and press play.
With some delay, this should work fine.
