Ok, this is getting frustrating. You submitted a pull req for what I
assume was a stable/tested skin. You noticed a problem and sent a req
for a quick fixup, no problem so far.

But with that fixup, lots of new stuff was added. I asked you to
revert it and just include a fix for a problem. Now, I am getting
ready to pull in the revised fixup, and again there is new code mixed
in. A fix for a stable release should contain _only_ that fix.

If you assure me that you're ok with me pulling now, I'll do it this
once. But please, use the tools! a simple 'git revert HEAD' and
search/replace is all that was needed here.

Cory
