Thank you Richard, Zed, and Joshua, for the input. i agree that any feature
as arguable as this needs a toggle (if it needs to be added at all). i'll
see what needs to be done on the setup page for this, and then scramble the
underlying JS code to make it unparseable to a bot (e.g. "1234567" becomes
'1'+'2'+'3'+'4'+..., which no bot in the world would know what to do with).

That's a larger task i'll have to punt on at the moment, but this would be a
nice feature. If we had a separate skins table which contain the
css/header/footer/etc for skin sets, we could copy that over the current
config on demand. Which parts would need to be stored for each skin
definition? e.g. CSS, header, footer... what else?
