I am filing a bug directly on this issue right now, and I will also alert the Skype development team of this directly. I agree that this is a problem, at least if I understand the situation correctly.

Is Doug Lee in contact with Skype at a level where he can request an override to this new automatic system?

I am afraid Skype is forcing us to upgrade to a newer Skype version when it's visible; when they're hotfixes is ok, though I am not really sure it's a great policy when newer versions of Skype will need script updates.
