When you say, as indicators, you don't mean by purposely exposing them to a possibly infected snake to see if they contract symptoms do you? I doubt that is what you mean, but that is the way the statement made it sound.
As for colubrids, I'm not personally sure what other snakes contract IBD, I've mostly read about boas and balls, and heard a tiny bit about bigger pythons getting it. That would be something interesting to know, especially since most herpers have many different species in their collections.
