Probably just me not explaining myself very well on this. By skinable I mean able to be to skinned rather than requiring one in the first place (I'm dev so language slightly different).
Allowing skins to be applied over a stock look and feel I believe offers a great end user experience. If we can combine that with intelligent control associations (keep associated controls together) and allow configurable UI widgets then everyone is happy: UI becomes just another configuration dataset for the developer.

As for rhe racism/Chappelle talk, just judge that girl on her own merits. She's Black, not Martian. It is only a skin color, just like a hair color. My girlfriend is a White woman with blonde hair, and she's exactly like the red headed and brunette women I've dated: unique as individuals. Worry about getting to know her, not her culture. Not all Black people IN MY CITY are much alike, much less in the world. I'm not much like Bryant Gumble, Shaka Zulu, TuPac, or Al Sharpton. I'm the only christexaport, and she's the only her. Keep that in mind and she'll be your's forever if that's what you want. Chappelle will only teach you to be laughed at, and maybe that's not always the best idea.
Now back to the topic...
For some reason I couldn't search for any existing threads on the subject so I just created one. If there is one please feel free to link and I'll post there.

There has to be a way to "force" people like you actually fix the things they are complaining about rather than trying to force others to do so.
