The myplex web interface is for playing content from the server not clients. If you want to control the clients you need the iOS or Android app.

Are you asking if she can remotely access your server to view content streamed from there?

It should work but I haven’t tried it myself yet.  
I’ll try this soon thus this is a “must-have” feature for me too.  
(If there is an issue, expect it to be solved soon after someone actually filed a bug)

I've just tried this feature - it was slow (but the internet connection was slow too) but the movie played fine. But there may be still some issues...

The Plex/web interface is probably still the more stable but I hope RasPlex will get more stable soon.

(Remote connections may require live transcoding and thus a powerful PMS)
