Hey,
The getSkin method of the User class has been deprecated in MW 1.18, but is still in use on a lot of places. I want to take care of this in the extensions I maintain, but it's not clear to me what to replace it with in parser functions and tag extensions. The deprecation notice states you should use the most relevant RequestContext. How can this be obtained from inside a parser function or tag extension? I did several searches through trunk and the extensions I've checked out, but did not find any parser hooks using this yet.
Cheers
