I do believe there's already a storefront for various ebook sources.

I don't think calibre needs an OPDS client for what you want to accomplish. There are other methods for implementing a server/client set-up. Best is probably to take a similar route to XBMC (admittedly, I'm not sure how XBMC is set-up exactly as I use WMC+Media Browser). For ebooks, though, I'd probably prefer something similar to iTunes Home Sharing.
