In effect the easiest thing to do is to sub-fusebox your functionality and
then provide a top-level fusebox that provides the skin (manages
layout/security/your beer requirements).
The way I write sub-fuseboxes is to assume that they only provide logic
content. In effect this enables you to write portable application
functionality which can easily be plugged into whatever you are doing.
