Right now we have one solution: skin layers. Until the new stuff is used

For the record, I disagree with this (and so does my book).

I think browse views are vastly superior to skin layer templates, because they give you a sensible place to put view logic. Last I checked, they do cache in CacheFu as well.

Viewlets have to be done with Z3 resources. Portlet renderers too.

Style sheets and images don't, and people may prefer skin layers. I prefer to have a well-defined namespace (the ++resource++ prefix) and to follow along the same paradigm as the above three.

That said, unifying the customisation and configuration story here would be an enormous win.
