User:Jdlrobson/New skin architecture

Skins are a nightmare to build and maintain. A new skin architecture could solve that.


 * a skin can be created by adding a new folder with a skin.mustache, skin.css and skin.js file
 * A skin does not use any hook.
 * There is one single point of entry for modifying skins that provides a skin class with public method that allow:
 * Adding menu items
 * A menu item consists of a 'group', 'name', 'icon' and 'url' OR 'title'. The skin decides how to render these groups.
 * Adding meta data after the parser output e.g. related articles,
 * Adding meta data before the parser output e.g. breadcrumbs/subtitle
 * it is not possible to add JS and CSS directly to a skin. This must be done via one of the existing hooks
