Hmmm... ok, that is a good idea. Though after a look over that I think this api
is fine enough for now.
Even after we move to something like that special pages will probably still use
$this->get{Output,Skin,User}() helpers since the shortcuts are cleaner to use.
So even when move to a context object SpecialPage will have the same api, we
just have to make some unnoticeable backend changes. OutputPage will probably
have a context object of it's own and likewise have some helper proxy methods.
So I think this should be fine for now, it's a step closer to that context api
and not incompatible with it.
