I think they are usable with a good number of skins.  However, while the class
names and HTML structure must be usable on all skins, I've said consistently
that different skins can (and probably should in certain cases) implement their
own appearance using skinStyles.

skinStyles can already be used to add additional styles (but not erase the
'styles' ones).  However, I'm fine with changing it to use 'default' if that's
useful (to allow replacing certain parts).  It may make sense to have a mixture
eventually, not sure.

If we need to pull some stuff out into Vector, that's fine too.  However, last
time we tried to do that (before the skin refactor), we hit the problem that
other widely used skins (i.e. Monobook, but also others) did not implement
custom styling for important features (buttons).

Isarra, if you're interested in concretely making a particular skin work better
with MW UI, I will help support your work on that.
