No no. XML-RPC did use IXMLRPCRequest before. All I added was the  
IXMLRPCSkinType which did not exist.

What I also changed is the ++skin++ traverser which was registered  
for "*" instead of IBrowserRequest. But I consider the old behaviour  
a bug since skins were only valid with IBrowserRequest.

Before I'll revert the layer-support will be there in a third party  
package, probably using ++api++.
