As far as I understand it is the correct zope 3 way. Skinning becames more
complicated (compare to skinning for plone 2) for pure css designers. It forse
them to learn things that are not a designer's stuff. Personally I am anxious
about this. This makes me think that even with the deliverance skinning won't
be that simple for a designer. Sorry for this pessimistic  thought :)
