Will Hobbit play nice with bbfetch? If I recall, bbfetch is run on the BBDISPLAY server, and scp's the raw status files generated by the remote clients modified $BBHOME/bin/bb.
It might not ... I haven't tried bbfetch myself, so I cannot say. But it would probably be pretty easy to come up with a script that picks up the status-files that bbfetch collects, and sends them off to the Hobbit daemon via the normal Hobbit "bb" command.
If bb-fetch won't work with Hobbit, it might be nice to incorporate similar functionality in, as it is quite useful for situations where bbproxy won't do the trick because of one-way firewall issues.
I have some ideas for a Hobbit client, and yes - making it work in both a "push" (normal client) and a "pull" (bbfetch style) setup it necessary.
