Any way of customising the skin without directly editing the CSS would be extremely limited. If you make a list of things you would like to be easily customisable, it shouldn't be difficult to knock up a special page to do it. However, you would probably have to choose between customising via the special page *or* by the CSS - I can't think of a practical way to merge customisations from both (except for using the special page as a starting point and then editing the CSS, but you would lose any edits to the CSS if you changed anything on the special page later on).
Not at all! CSS is "cascading" for a reason. :) Just have the GUI-generated stuff inserted in the generated style after the defaults but before Monobook.css.

Hi all,
Quick question: should a MediaWiki page look the same in the same browser with and without javascript support?
It should, but our Wiki*edias are full of JS hacks ;)
I've been thinking about MediaWiki:Common.xsl. Who's with me? :D (Of course, we'd need to produce valid XHTML first . . .)
