So after firing off that email and continuing to do more research, I see
that it doesn't make sense to control request.dynamic() over telnet....this
only requests a new source when the old source is completed, and therefore
I don't have any control over it.

Looks like dynamic source creation is my best bet so far - I can command it
to start playing something on demand via telnet....
