As Tim says you could compile aptX into the underlying bluez-alsa on your own. I decided not to fiddle with it and instead buy a USB-BT adapter with aptX support built in. in my case I'm using the Creative BT-W2 which enumerates in moOde as a USB audio device. I use it to drive my Sennheiser wireless headphones. This approach sidesteps the Linux Bluetooth subsystem altogether.
As for GUI-based apps like a web browser, YouTube, and VLC (well, ok, so VLC also has a CLI), which are rather far afield from intended use-cases of the moOde UI, how about just put another RPi in the cabinet with a reasonably sized display screen run full Raspbian customized however you like it, and couple it to the headless moOde player? Just thinking off the top of my head here, but the total investment would still be modest and it lets moOde be moOde.
