I was just suggesting that in the installation notes, you could add the info
about how to add the RSS feed link to the whole site by letting them know
how to modify the code.skin{.SkinName} file manually. Not sure if it would
be worth the effort to create a plugin to do that.
It is easy enough to do, but a lot of people wouldn't think of doing it or
know how it was done.
Again, the link itself would be applied to the rest of the site rather than
needing to be done to the RSS page itself since you are already there if you
are viewing that.
Just a suggestion...
