Pointless? Would it help if we used the term "user stories"? :-)

I think we should be focusing on making the software
and system better.
If that means "a better skin api" or it means "a new skin" or it
means
"removing old skins", let’s do that.
This has the feeling of a false trichotomy. I don't think anyone will be
revamping the skins system anytime soon, but that isn't to say that means
we should instead simply remove the skins. There's always the option of
doing nothing or moving the skins into extensions or many others.
I believe the open question remains what to do with Cologne Blue and
Modern. I don't think there's much objection to moving them into
extensions. Then we can debate whether or not to bundle the extensions by
default with core. It'll be great. ;-)
