This is good; if we think about the current "skin" namespace as really
being about the *request* rather than the browser presentation (which
certainly fits my mental model better), then it should apply to all
request types, not just IBrowserRequest.

This suggests that there's not as much common understanding of what
"skin" means, and there's historical baggage in it.

Can't say I've ever advocated removing that, but I'm one of those
skin-means-request-type folks.

I suspect the hangup some people have is really about the "skin" name
for something that's not about browser presentation.
