For the time being, it's not a skin-specific style.

That's your opinion.  No other skin writers have expressed that opinion, as far
as I know.

Either provide CSS or LESS, or at least a mockup.

There is nothing special about either MediaWiki's LESS support, or the
MediaWiki UI modules.  MediaWiki doesn't even use custom PHP LESS functions
anymore, and you can still write skins in 100% CSS.

I don't understand what part of the backend you feel blocks your work on an
alternative skin for MediaWiki UI.
